'Brendan Fevola is a football enigma. Revered for his goalkicking feats at Carlton, he had the talent to be one of the club's all-time greats. However, as Carlton discovered over an 11-year journey, Fevola was also every club's nightmare. Whether it was being sent home from Ireland in disgrace during Australia's 2006 International Rules Series or his antics at the 2009 Brownlow Medal, there was usually a common denominator: alcohol.

'This fascinating biography charts Fevola's rise to AFL greatness and his very public descent into disgrace.' (From the publisher's website.)

On February 7, 2009 the worst bushfire disaster in Australian history occurred, a day which became known as 'Black Saturday'.

This book, Inferno 'written by veteran journalist Roger Franklin is a classic blend of action, heartbreak, survival, love, and community. This narrative brings to life individual tales of horror and heroism, recounts the devastation of Kinglake, Marysville and other besieged Victorian towns, and salutes the generosity and unyielding spirit of humanity on the state's darkest day.'
