Brandon has just graduated from university as a primary school teacher. As he travels to his first teaching post, he wonders what he's got himself into. From the airplane, the tiny town of Gunnanilla looks no bigger than a cattle station. And when he lands, he steps into heat such as he has never encountered before.
Sweating and feeling faint from the extreme temperature, he meets his new boss Mark Petersen, the racist principal of the only school for miles around. Then he meets the school's other teacher, Mark's wife Trina, and the students, most of whom are Australian Aborigines.
Life in the small town is no picnic. In the summer, the heat is unrelenting. In the wet season, the town is cut off from the outside world and all deliveries are brought to a halt. There is only one television channel. To top it all off, there are any number of poisonous creatures around, such as snakes, scorpions, and spiders. How's a poor city boy like Brandon, who's interested in fashion, music, and clubbing and none too confident with his sexuality, going to cope?
Enter the handsome, rough-around-the-edges miner, Frank. When Mark warns Brandon that Frank is gay, it seems this town might finally have something to keep him entertained. But how can he meet Frank without drawing attention to his own sexuality? How can anything possibly happen between them in such rough, tough, and macho surroundings?

But all that changes when he is taken by soldiers to join the royal harem. There Pan is introduced to King Seronisis and soon becomes his consort.
From that moment on, Pan's life is filled with romance, danger, secrets, and adventure. He falls in love with King Seronisis, who returns his feelings and disbands the harem to focus only on Pan. In many ways, life at the palace is easier than life on the farm, but in other ways it is much more difficult ... as Pan soon discovers.

Alexander Monroe lives in Grasspatch, a town so small, the founders couldn't even be bothered thinking up a proper name for it. He works at the news agency/post office, where his duties include ordering newspapers and magazines, printing Lotto tickets, and delivering the mail.
One morning he has to deliver a parcel to the mysterious Mr Christian O'Neill, who lives in an oddly-shaped mansion on the outskirts of town. Not much is known about Mr O'Neill, although there is certainly an abundance of rumours -- a faded rock star, a media-shy actor. Alexander can't wait to find out the answers for himself.
Rather than being odd, Christian turns out to be the most interesting person Alexander has ever met. In fact, he asks to come back, and with each consecutive visit, he learns more and more about Christian, and about the power of the mind and the wonders visualisation can bring.
But even as Alexander learns how to get what he thinks he wants, he loses Christian. Is it too late to find him again? And if he does, will what they had still be there?

Fortunately, rather than having to endure the interruptions and distractions at university, his "Uncle" Tom has invited Dale to stay with him at Walton Manor. In the countryside he has plenty of space, almost continual silence, and a butler to cater to his every whim.

From then on, Dale's tranquil existence at Walton Manor is permanently shattered. Once things are set in motion, they are impossible to stop. After a final confrontation between Dominic and Tom, Dale discovers the most shocking truth of all.
