Fantastic Story BUT Narrator spoils it
A great story of early Australia and the Aboriginal interaction between tens of thousands of years of history, and the new settlers of New South Wales. A very enrapturing story.
BUT......
The American narrator mispronouncing basic Australian names is so painfull that it destroyed a great novel.
The worst was prounouncing an Emu as an "E-moo"
Australian Novels should be read by Australian Narrators !
