“Adventure abounds such as an encounter with the giant Haast’s eagle, the predator of moa, crossing torrent like rivers and more. It is a book innovative in its concept, extremely well written and quite enthralling.”
Tony Orman – Hunting & Outdoor Writer
“If you love epic Kiwi adventure, time travel, exploration and history (and the Fiordland Moose!), you’re in the right place. I’ve been drawn back to the rugged southern Sounds again and again for over thirty years – most of my life. It was only a matter of time before my fascination with this magical wilderness spilled over into my writing! “Home from the Homer” and “A Doubtful Detour” are fantastic adventures set in the rugged remoteness of Fiordland.
They’re variously described as cross-genre, middle grade, historical fiction, creative non-fiction, and fantasy/sci-fi (because of the time travel). Read them and decide for yourself! They’re not just children’s books, and are aimed at anyone who, like me, loves Fiordland, our native animals and the Kiwi outdoors, and who recognises the power of imagination. Take yourself back in time with Zoe and Seth as they leave the modern day behind to explore the incredible world of Fiordland.”

TWO YOUNG BULL MOOSE STANDING IN THE SEAFORTH RIVER. SOUTH ISLAND SOUNDS DISTRICT.
Adult Romance Novels
For anyone who loves romance novels featuring true-to-life Kiwi characters.
“When I’m not in Fiordland I’m often exploring the rest of the South Island. My contemporary romance novels are set around the South Island (Maniototo Skies), and also Stewart Island (Across the Strait), where I’ve lived in the past. They’re rural small town romances, with happy endings, and can be read separately or as part of different series. Check out the great reviews on Amazon or Goodreads.” - Anya
