Kylie Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Tom Keneally and his daughter, Meg, have secured a three-book deal, with plans for 12 in total. Article here. "The crime-solving pair are Monsarrat, a Huguenot gentleman convict and clerk to the commandant of the Port Macquarie penal station in 1825, and Mrs Mulrooney, the commandant's Irish Catholic cook." Sounds interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie H Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 That's sounds good! I have a couple of his books (unread, naturally ) but I first read one of Keneally's short story/article in Granta magazine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesilbeach Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I love the idea that he will be mentoring his daughter. I remember a listening to him interviews on ABC's The Book Show (I miss that podcast ) and on the BBC's Open Book and he was a very interesting person to listen to … some authors can be a bit dry and fusty, but he was very engaging. I might try these when they come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
