Publisher's Summary
Brutally kidnapped and separated in childhood, Tommo and Hawk are reunited at the age of 15 in Hobart Town.
Together they escape their troubled pasts and set off on a journey into manhood. From whale hunting in the Pacific to the Maori Wars of New Zealand, from the Rocks in Sydney to the miners' riots at the goldfields, Tommo and Hawk must learn each other's strengths and weaknesses in order to survive.
Along the way, Hawk meets the outrageous Maggie Pye, who brings love and laughter into his life. But the demons of Tommo's past return to haunt the brothers. With Tommo at his side, Hawk takes on a fight against all odds to save what they cherish most.

Phenomenal!
Holy heck I could barely breath for the last half hour! I can scarcely write the accolades for this book, such is my urgency to get to the next! But I’m making myself as Tommo and Hawk - the second book of the Solomon trilogy - is nothing short of a masterpiece! What an emotional rollercoaster! Highs and lows and heart wrenching moments all intertwined in the most skin crawling history lesson you’ll ever hear!
Mr Humphrey Bower’s performance is phenomenal. He brings every character and every scene to life in such a way that is so believable and real that you feel like you’re seeing and hearing it all with your own eyes and ears!
There is so much more I could say to recommend these books but I must dash so I can get to the next! Xxx

Riveting cant wait for book 3
Exciting, funny, brave and a wonderful story. Make sure you've read book 1 first. History is real and factual - a great melding of fact and fiction. Narrator does a wonderful job, clear and spell binding. Helps me understand my NZ history, and the settling of Australia.

Intriguing
The story is intriguing and pulls you in for more. My only suggestion would be to ensure the person reading the books learns to pronounce names, places and language. I feel it would give some honour to the people it speaks about. I refer to the chapters in NZ and the Maori people.

Awake on every word.
Not at all disappointed, the story kept my attention to 100%. Now, can't wait to start Solomon's song book...the last of these trilogy. Humphrey Bower is the best narrator ever! I could always follow who is talking in the story because of the changes of his voice tones and accent etc. Brilliant ♥️
