The two weeks since the release of Daintree have been busy with book signings, libraray visits and talks, and radio and newspaper interviews!
There have been lots of shelf sightings of Daintree all over the country from Cairns to Perth, to Tasmania, and even one across the Tasman Sea in Wellington, New Zealand! When I was in Sydney, I was asked for a photo by the zany Costa Georgiadis ...he liked the flowers in my colourful dress! It was World Soil Day! An exciting day today...two weeks to release, and my copies have arrived. They are so pretty!
My first review went up on Good reads and I was delighted to read it! Daintree by Aussie author Annie Seaton is the second in The Porter Sisters trilogy and as utterly gripping and intense as the first, Kakadu Sunset(Ellie’s story)! With a fast paced, brilliantly crafted plot, the suspense and intrigue was well done. I loved the descriptions of the Daintree; the research which obviously went into Aboriginal healing using leaves and roots from the bush – the gorgeous birds and deadly creatures (which weren’t so gorgeous!) Daintree is one I highly recommend and I’m really looking forward to book 3 which I guess will be Dru’s story. Romantic suspense at its best! https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31833405-daintree September
