SELLING FAST
Dive into a new dimension as Garth Nix explains how he creates complex and meaningful fantasy worlds to bring his extraordinary novels to life.
His intoxicating new novel Frogkisser! (Allen & Unwin) invites readers into a world of laughs, danger, delight (and an immense population of frogs). Daydreaming, observing the world, reading books, exploring mythologies and learning science are just a few of the ways Garth gathers ideas as a writer, weaving a completely new reality in his novels.
