I'm very pleased with the review of Racing the Moon that's in the latest issue of Good Reading. Wendy Noble finishes the review with: "Set in Sydney during the Great Depression, this is a beautifully written, well-researched and deeply engaging story." (Good Reading, April 2014, p.68.) Part of this review is also on the Good Reading Magazine website.
