The Australian Woman's Mirror gives the following description:
'Readers who enjoyed those remarkably successful Mirror serials 'Phantom Millions' and 'Journey's End' will be glad to hear that a new story from the same pen is about to appear.
In "Nine Days' Wonder" Gilbert Mant allows his sense of fun free rein, and as a result he has given us an extravaganza full of chuckles. This rollicking story comes as an antidote to more serious novel-reading and should be welcomed in these depressing days.
You will find it difficult to follow without laughter the adventures that befall when a Melbourne girl flees to Sydney from a fatuous lover and takes a header into Bohemia.'
