To my OG publishing bestie and fellow author, Benjamin Stevenson. Thank you for all your advice regarding blurbs and publishing options, and for inspiring me with your own incredible drive and success.
Tara Bennett, your Hikari candles have got me through every draft so far. I can’t write a book without you, it seems. Thank you for your support and friendship, as well as your beautiful products that make me feel at peace, no matter where I am in the world.
To Mum, Dad and Yas back in Sydney, you’ve been so supportive since I decided to go indie back in 2017 and it’s meant the world to me. But especially since I moved to New Zealand, you’ve held the author fort by posting out books around Australia on my behalf … Thank you for everything you do.
I also can’t leave without saying a special thank you to the following people: Margot Butler, the O’shea family, the Mulhollands, the Zapperts and Delzoppos, Auty Lawler, Natalia Hunter, Fay Wood, Erin Mealey, Snez Georgieva, Brad Davis, Kyra Thomsen, Liam Casey, Mel Clarke, Emily-May Norman, Jenny Ryan, Gilly Haines, Sofia Casanova, Jodie Sloan, Fay Robson, Mira Bagtas, Jordan Meek (and Jordan’s mum!), Anne Sengstock, Phoebe Woodward and the ‘Supertrampers’ (Zane, Liz and Podge).
Last, but never least, I want to thank YOU. My readers. Whether you’ve been with me since The Oremere Chronicles, or you’re a new friend, thank you. Thank you for taking a chance on this strange, dark, ambitious book and its cunning characters. I hope we meet again when the adventure continues.
