 The Seven Saga: Book 1
Publication Date: October 7, 2025
Haunted by his failures as a father, billionaire widower Abraham Meyer sends his seven privileged children on a life-changing quest across seven continents to find priceless sculptures that embody the purity of love.
Departing reluctantly, each of the siblings comes up with their own version of the easiest way to accomplish the task. But the realities of each continent clash hard with their expectations, and they quickly learn they must give their best, not to succeed, but to survive. Because the task didn’t matter in the first place; sending them into the wild mattered.
Thrown into landscapes as unforgiving as they are beautiful, where comfort, status and certainty mean nothing, they will face loss, love, and the courage it takes to grow.
Abraham Meyer knows his death is imminent, but he is determined that his seven pampered adult children learn one last lesson.
In The Seven, author Igor Stefanovic details the quest assigned to each one as they travel to a separate continent to find a sculpture portraying the purity of love.
What sounds like an easy task evolves into a maelstrom of complications. Without their father’s vast resources, both political and economic, they fall prey to an outside world where success is not guaranteed.
The siblings may think they can easily accomplish the task, but each one faces unexpected obstacles. From Antarctica to Australia to Europe, they search for elusive representations of pure love.
The Seven delivers a powerful story about a father who teaches a life lesson to his adult children under the guise of a quest.
Igor Stefanovic is a visual artist and storyteller, originally from Belgrade, Serbia. He moved to the U.S. in 2009 to join DreamWorks Animation, where he worked as a Character Technical Director on the Kung Fu Panda and Shrek franchises, specializing in the expression and anatomy of digital characters.
His artistic journey expanded into painting and sculpture, with exhibitions across the U.S. and Europe. His large-scale painting The Debate of Seven Brothers merged visual art with narrative, inspiring a broader cinematic concept. That vision evolved into a screenplay, which earned top honors at over a dozen international film festivals and ultimately led him to write The Seven.
Igor’s work is driven by a deep passion for world cultures and a fascination with how life’s challenges shape us: core themes that resonate throughout his storytelling.
