The Oceana Trilogy follows interconnected families across generations of Australian history. Starting with Lands Beyond the Sea (2007), the series traces characters from England’s shores to the Australian colonies, covering themes of displacement, survival, and building new lives in unfamiliar territory.
A Kingdom for the Brave (2008) and Legacy (2009) continue the family saga forward through time. The trilogy was published before Dean launched her better-known Cliffehaven series and reflects her interest in Australian settings, which also appears in many of her standalone novels.
