hi Bernard, I have just read my first book of yours (Burning Land) and it was fantastic. The best I have read in some time. Have you been or thinking of coming to Australia? For I would love to see you in person and shake the hand that shock the world. Looking at your web site for the first time tonight suggests to me I have been living under a rock for you have been writing longer than I have been breathing and I have some catching up to do. Keep up the great work Bernard. I will keep reading. cheers, Ben Craig, see you in Australia soon mate.
