STATUS REPORTS
As you browse our website you will be informed of the stock status of
particular titles. If you are unsure what the status means, an explanation
will pop up when your mouse cursor moves over it.
Please note:
Individual titles stock status is updated three times a week so reports
are normally accurate.
From time to time however we can have multiple orders come in between
website updates so status reports for a short period of time may be inaccurate,
which means a title listed as "In Stock" may need to go to backorder.
Author: David Metzenthen
As a child David Metzenthen was a nature boy; he loved fishing and farm work, exploring the bush, and being outdoors under the stars. He also lived very much inside his own head; feeling that the world was a place of unlimited adventure. He harboured dreams of becoming a cowboy, a fisherman, a farmer, a sailor, or a writer. Instead he left home at eighteen, with a copy of Jack Kerouac's On the Road for company, and hitch-hiked his way around New Zealand. Returning to Australia, David worked as a builder's labourer and advertising copy writer before finding success as a writer of books for children and young adults.
