Grania: She-King of the Irish Seas is a 1986 historical novel about Grace O'Malley, the so-called "Sea Queen of Connemara", by American-born Irish author Morgan Llywelyn. Llywelyn's novel is a heavily fictionalized account of O'Malley's life, the author having created characters as needed for the plot of the story.[1] The novel was the basis for the 2007 Broadway musical The Pirate Queen.[2]
