Some of the later sections take place in Botany Bay. It was an aspect of Australian history I hadn't been familiar with beforehand.Sarah Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340312953393474963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-18981492367021182622015-06-10T19:58:23.795-05:002015-06-10T19:58:23.795-05:00As a fan of nautical fiction I'm very interest...As a fan of nautical fiction I'm very interested in reading this one! Laperouse has an Australian connection too. He landed in Botany Bay, Australia, a few days after the arrival of the British in 1788. There is a Sydney suburb named after him. <br /><br />According to Naomi William's website Landfalls will also be available in Australia/New Zealand in August as a trade paperback from Little Brown.<br /><br />I'm glad of your review as I hadn't heard of this novel or author before.
