Two Shanes is Lee Tulloch's best and funniest novel.

A brilliantly plotted romantic comedy that readers won't be able to put down, it tells the story of two Australians living in New York, a surfer named Shane Dekker, and Cheyne Burdekin, an aspiring actor. The lives of these strangers overlap in hilariously unpredictable ways, especially after Shane meets the dark-haired Finley Rule in a surf shop, and Cheyne's old flame Avalon jets in from Brisbane.

Reviews for Two Shanes

Witch's Honour is the last in Jan Siegel's trilogy began in Prospero's Children and continued in The Dragon-Charmer. In the previous volumes our heroine, Fern, became aware of her powers as a witch and, with her brother Will and other allies, sought to defeat dark forces including sorceress Morgus, who tried to imprison Fern in the Otherworld and was killed by her in return. Now Fern is grown up and working in PR in London, but she discovers that Morgus has returned from the dead and come to England to seek her revenge, while evil spirit Azmordis is also on the warpath. Siegel's world is set within ours but it is a world of witches, wizards, goblins and earth-powers which coexist with ordinary and mundane people. The Gifted, or Prospero's children, have witch powers derived from the fall of Atlantis, and Atlantean and Arthurian myths are central to the narrative. Siegel writes well, and her excellent descriptive talents create some moments of real fear. The narrative sags a little in the middle - usually a problem of the middle volume of a trilogy rather than the last - but the exciting finale more than makes up for it. Siegel has a strong future ahead of her. Ages 12+ (Kirkus UK)
