Writing as Kolbrun Valbergsdottir

​

Born amidst the dramatic vistas of North Iceland, Kolbrún Valbergsdóttir has translated the stark beauty of her surroundings into a rich tapestry of genres in her writing. After two decades as an IT specialist with a cadre of international firms, she turned the precision and logic of code into the intricate plotting of her literary pursuits. Settling in one of Iceland's northernmost locales—a place with the eerie charm that could rival the backdrop of a Stephen King novel—Kolbrún has dedicated herself to the craft of storytelling.

Her narrative prowess spans the shadowy corners of crime and noir, the tense beats of thrillers, and the expansive possibilities of science fiction. Each genre is a playground for her to explore the nuances of human nature against the backdrop of both otherworldly and familiar settings.
