A classic tale that follows the later life of Borri

This is the second and closing book about Boori. A young man of the People (Australian Aboriginal), who grew in the first book (Boori by Scott) to be both a hero and a magician. In this work a great evils comes to the land and must be opposed. This book continues the great use of real locations that was a highlight of the first book. The revelation of the nature of the great evil was very well done. A great blending of Aboriginal tales, history, mythology, and place. Read it and learn something of Aboriginal Australia.
