The Author Jacob J. Akol was born in Southern Sudan, now South Sudan, in the mid-40s. He enjoyed telling myths and folktales as a child. He was educated in southern Sudan at Kuacjok Catholic Mission up to the intermediate school level. He then skipped in and out of formal education as he led the life of a refugee in Congo (DRC), Tanzania, Zambia, Ireland and England where he finished school and eventually earned a Masters Degree in Communication Arts and Media from the University of Leeds, England. As an aid worker cum journalist he travelled widely in Africa, from Antananarivo in Madagascar through Cape Town to Cairo and from Mogadishu in Somalia to Timbuktu in Mali and beyond – there is apparently more of Africa beyond Timbuktu. In addition to this book, he has authored three other books, including two memoirs. He is married to Joy and they have two grownup children, Aker and Atem. They all live in UK.
