Book Description
Kangaroo is an account of a visit to New South Wales by an English writer named Richard Lovat Somers, and his German wife Harriet, in the early 1920s. The novel includes a chapter ("Nightmare") describing the Somers' experiences in wartime Cornwall, vivid descriptions of the Australian landscape, and Richard Somers' sceptical reflections on fringe politics in Sydney. "Kangaroo" is the nickname of one of Lawrence's characters, Benjamin Cooley, a prominent ex-soldier and lawyer, who is also the leader of a secretive, fascist paramilitary organisation, the "Diggers Club". Cooley fascinates Somers, but he maintains his distance from the movement itself.

Book Description
With Waypoint Kangaroo, Chen makes his debut with this outer space thriller. Kangaroo isn’t your typical spy. Sure, he has extensive agency training, access to bleeding-edge technology, and a ready supply of clever (to him) quips and retorts. But what sets him apart is “the pocket.” It’s a portal that opens into an empty, seemingly infinite, parallel universe, and Kangaroo is the only person in the world who can use it. But he's pretty sure the agency only keeps him around to exploit his superpower. After he bungles yet another mission, Kangaroo gets sent away on a mandatory “vacation:” an interplanetary cruise to Mars. While he tries to make the most of his exile, two passengers are found dead, and Kangaroo has to risk blowing his cover. It turns out he isn’t the only spy on the ship–and he’s just starting to unravel a massive conspiracy which threatens the entire Solar System. Now, Kangaroo has to stop a disaster which would shatter the delicate peace that’s existed between Earth and Mars ever since the brutal Martian Independence War. A new interplanetary conflict would be devastating for both sides. Millions of lives are at stake. Weren’t vacations supposed to be relaxing?

Book Description
I have written a fantasy about a pair of elves setting out to carry on their parent’s work of making the best wands in the country. They have to travel far and wide to collect the ingredients for their wands. They seek opals for its rainbow colour, silver to give it strength, and water from the blue lake to mix with their own hidden spring water to activate its magic. Their two children travelled with them and like children everywhere, they are forever getting into difficulty. On one occasion they disappear into a painting and find they have to answer a riddle to escape. It was a trap set by the wizards. Later they are captured by Goblins and have to be rescued by a wombat who is a friend of the family. In their absence, an evil wizard comes to reside across from their farm where he attempts to learn the secret of their hidden spring. He is closely watched by small animals and birds who are friends of the elves. But being so small they can only watch as he discovers the whereabouts of the spring and sets a trap for the elves on their return. I feel this novel would suit children aged nine to twelve.
