Acknowledgement: I read this book and wrote this review whilst on the traditional lands of the Pambalong Clan of the Awabakal people, and on the traditional lands the Wonnarua people. I would like to pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
I listened to this book on Invasion Day as my own little fuck you/support indigenous Australians political protest and it fucking slapped.
I don’t want to say too much about this for fear of spoiling anything but I will say that it was insanely atmospheric and tense. Listening to the audiobook while the world turned to twilight added an element of *shudder* that I cannot overstate. I already want to listen/read this one again and I wished more people talked about it.
