Book Description
Shortlisted for the 2017 Text Prize As soon as I finish school I’ll have the car packed. I’ll thunder past the dull cardboard boxes that Banarang calls shops, I’ll skim over the Bridge Street potholes without feeling a bump and I’ll fly up the freeway, bound for the city and civilisation. Bones Carter is done with Banarang and his backwater existence. There’s not much to do but hang out with his friends, make bad rap music and count down the days until the end of school and the beginning of his new life in the city. Then Naya comes to town. Brilliant, black and beautiful, she wants to change the world. She thinks Bones is a well of untapped potential. Bones thinks she’s delusional—but she makes him feel more hopeful than he has in a long time. Bonesland is a wild ride through the small-town agonies of adolescence, packed with sex, drugs, love and hip-hop. Brendan Lawley is a writer living in Melbourne. Bonesland is his first novel. ‘This amusing, poignant coming-of-age story deftly addresses some of the issues facing today’s teens, from mental health to social media, and puts a fresh spin on a familiar message about the value of being yourself.’ Books+Publishing ‘This debut from Melbourne-based Brendan Lawley is bursting with quirky humour and incredible heart as he chronicles the small-town agonies of adolescence. You’re right there besides Bones as he rides wave after wave of emotion, laughing at and rolling along with his bumbling every move. There’s so much to love about this teen and the young author who created him.’ Herald Sun ‘...has the raw feel of authenticity about it...a book impressively full of energy and, unexpectedly, heart.’ Adelaide Advertiser

Book Description
Use the incredible power of bones, crystals, and curios as divinatory tools to develop a deeper understanding of your abilities, your relationships, and your future. The casting of bones and other objects for divination has been part of many cultural traditions for millennia. When we think of bones, we usually think of animal or human skeletal remains. However, in divination practice, the word "bones" refers to all the elements that are cultivated in your own "bone-throwing kit." While most of the items will be natural, such as bones, shells, roots, and crystals, a kit may also include other baubles and trinkets--a dice, coins, a key. Creating your own bone-throwing kit allows you to build a connection to the bones you wish to include in your arsenal and create a definitive divination system based on your personal practice. This beautifully illustrated book includes everything you need to start "throwing bones" and divining the answers to any questions you have about the future or gaining inspiration for how to work with current situations. In it you will find: Advice and suggestions for creating your own set of "bones" 20 unique casting boards with full instructions on how to use them when addressing different sorts of questions Other related methods of divination, including crystal divination--such as crystal scrying--and pendulum dowsing The large, square format and layflat binding make the book uniquely practical.

Book Description
Find the Weatherman. This vague directive is all that Askari and the others have as they head north into an increasingly cold and snowy winter. With Minda leading the ragtag band of Baratok members, they head to the Marketplace, a center of trade for the many communities and tribes that survive within the region. But no one has seen the Weatherman in weeks. Their only clue is from a crotchety old man named Moose, who agrees to lead them to the most recent location where he saw the Weatherman in exchange for a fee. They set out despite the looming snowstorm, knowing that if they fail, it's not only their own lives at stake, but the lives of everyone everywhere. They have to stop the flood of monsters into the world, or there won't be anyone left to save.
