The Koru of Times is a multi-generational odyssey that weaves together Maori heritage, love, loss, and the resilience of the human spirit. Set against the breath-taking backdrop of Aotearoa (New Zealand), this saga follows the trials and triumphs of a Maori tribe, beginning with Amiri, a brave warrior, and Hahana, their union symbolising tribal unity. But their legacy is one of tragedy. The invasion of European settlers unleashes chaos and shatters Amiri's village. Survival becomes paramount as Hau, a trusted warrior, protects Manaia, daughter of Amiri and Hahana, and leads her together with her care mother to a place near a spring, where they rebuild in the face of adversity. The narrative moves through time to focus on Waiora, Manaia's son of mixed descent, whose thirst for knowledge sparks a journey to reclaim the severed sacred heads of his ancestors from England. London becomes the setting for Waiora's quest, intertwining his destiny with Koa, a helping hand, and Reginald, an unexpected ally. Together they bridge cultures, restore ancestral honour, and forge lasting friendships, crossing barriers in search of reconciliation. The story shifts to Waiora's daughter Hinewai and Tane, whose love story unfolds in the shadow of Pakeha atrocities during the Gold Rush. Their flight to London, guided by family ties, leads to the establishment of an art business at 55 Proolmise, nurturing indigenous art and a new generation in a foreign land. The next chapter follows Manu Manuka, the sole heir to the prized artefacts shop in London, whose life takes a tumultuous turn when he's wrongly accused of murder. As Manu grapples with imprisonment, a web of deceit and revenge unravels, tracing back to a vengeful carpenter with a deep-seated grudge against Maori success. His cousin Kahu and wife Hine join the fray, rallying to Manu's side and strengthening Maori-London relations through their trade in indigenous artefacts. The family expands through the trials of World War I, witn
