The book is here. The wait is over (nearly).
Here it is... the first ever photo of the first physical copies of my book.
I saw these on Friday and I am delighted with how they look and feel. I owe huge thanks to the more than 300 friends and strangers who bought a copy in advance and so made this book possible. Your copies will be arriving with you soon. The official publication date is 8 September. The book will be available in shops and via Amazon, etc., from that date.

Congratulations Mike. It looks beautiful. I'll read it on my back verandah looking out at the huge fig tree just over our back fence. That tree is a like a city for birds, and the flying foxes at night, especially through fruiting season.

I never received my book, delivery company says it's sent back but no one has ever tried to deliver it. Can you please re-send with a more reliable company. Thank you.
