    Kel Richards – Country House Mysteries
    2024/06/04
    Acclaimed Australian broadcaster and wordsmith Kel Richards is passionate about classical mysteries, and the Golden Age of the 1930s when Agatha Christie and her fellow authors were writing them... Kel is also an Anglican lay canon, deeply immersed in Narnia creator and theologian C.S. Lewis' Oxford college world and his circle of friends, including Prof. J. R. Tolkien. Bring all of them together and you have Kel’s Country House Mysteries, featuring Jack Lewis and friends solving brain teasing "closed door" mysteries in 1930's Oxford. Hi, I’m your host Jenny Wheeler and today on the Binge Reading show Kel talks about his love for old fashioned clue puzzle mysteries – the sort that aren’t generally written any more – as well as his passion for Australian English – one of the richest vocabularies in the world, in his view.

  • Lian Dolan – The Marriage Sabbatical

    Lian Dolan – The Marriage Sabbatical
    2024/05/21
    What if you could take a vacation on your marriage and for six months, pursue a lifetime dream your husband doesn't share? And he could do the same. That's the premise for Lian Dolan's latest book, The Marriage Sabbatical. Hi, I'm your host, Jenny Wheeler and today Lian, the author of the popular The Sweeney Sisters and Lost And Found In Paris is quick to make clear that the central premise of the marriage sabbatical does not come from personal experience. She jokes her life is ‘just not that interesting.’ But on today's Binge Reading show, she talks about how she came to write a fascinating tale of marriage veterans of 23 years who take holidays apart for the first time in their lives because of their wildly clashing personal interests, and discover new things about themselves and their love for each other. Book Giveaways But before we get to Lian, be assured. We've got our usual free book giveaways this week. It’s open season on freebie thrillers.

  • Chris Draper – Optimistic Techno-Thriller

    Chris Draper – Optimistic Techno-Thriller
    2024/05/07
    Chris Draper is a Kiwi IT engineer with a passion for writing optimistic, techno-thrillers like Goodbye Woomera Belle the first in a series of five planned action-filled futurist thrillers suitable for young adults, as well as adult readers. Hi, I'm your host, Jenny Wheeler, and in this week's Binge Reading episode, Chris talks about how he fell in love with the Australian Outback while working in Adelaide, South Australia, and decided it would be the perfect location for the fast paced, optimistic techno thriller he’d been dreaming of writing for years. And so was born Goodbye Woomera Belle, a world changing story that unfolds in 116 hours. And it couldn't be more topical, revolving as it does around artificial intelligence and inter-governmental tensions between friendly and not so friendly powers. Erin Brightwell is a brilliant young mind whose research is critical to national security and lots of people want to get their hands on it. This week's Giveaway - Woomera Belle We'll get to our chat with Chris in a moment. But first this week's book giveaway; Chris has kindly offered 10 free copies of his book. Goodbye Woomera Belle to the first 10 readers who go online and claim it.
