AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A host of Australia's best genre fictioneers - and one bold Kiwi - were invited to submit stories to the first anthology of adventure stories commissioned by Clan Destine Press.

The authors could write in any genre but there a couple of must-haves: the stories had to feature 'a dynamic duo' and include something Australian (or Kiwi).

Thirty-two authors did exactly what we asked of them, in terms of page-turning yarns; and many also took advantage of the offer to write from 5000 to 15,000 words.

The three Great Big Books of Awesome Adventure Tales feature historical, futuristic and contemporary settings, and the adventures are real-world, far-out, sf, horror, fantasy and mystery.' (Publication Summary)
