'A moving and impressive debut' Telegraph

'Deftly captures the looking-glass world of the antipodean landscape ... Her account is vivid with a sense of strangeness ... 'Thicker Than Water' is, to borrow a word Australians use when dealing with anything unsettling, a "confronting" book' Guardian

'Intelligently and evocatively written' Allan Massie, Scotsman

'A searing tale of adventure and (self) discovery that shows the past is nearer than we think. Flyn is a writer with a gimlet eye and a big heart' Ben Rawlence

'Thicker Than Water combines memoir, history, travelogue and lyrical nature writing; a true story that reads like classy, page-turning fiction' Melanie Read, The Times
