Hungarian History Through International Eyes Episode 6 – Special Guest: Katerina Dunne Author of Lord of the Eyrie

In this special episode, I talk with Katerina Dunne, author of the historical novel Lord of the Eyrie. Set in the time of Hunyadi János, her story brings 15th-century Hungary to life, told through the eyes of both a nobleman and his wife, caught in the chaos of war, politics, and survival.

Katerina is a Greek-born writer who lived in Ireland for 25 years and recently moved to Cyprus. She learned Hungarian, fell in love with our history, and now shares it with the world in English. We talk about her creative journey, historical reenactment, buhurt fighting, and why this era still matters today.

Katerina’s books are available in English, Hungarian, and German:
