Swallow the Air
by Tara June Winch
Tara June Winch is a talented young indigenous writer who won the David Unaipon Award with this story of a young girl on a journey of self discovery. May gradually works out where she really needs to go, only to discover different, harder truths than she had imagined. The triumph of this story is that May does make the journey and eventually comes home.
Not a children’s story, nor suited to the fainthearted reader for its sometimes confronting content, this book is a poetic piece which demands something of the reader and displays the talent of this promising author.

Eragon Book Review
Eragon is a great book full of excitement and wonder. It combines many different genres including Adventure and Mystery. It has been enjoyed by many children and students from the age of 9-20 years. I recommend this book to all readers because I thought it was very imaginative and full of fantasy.
