This weekend I will host a panel devoted to Ursula Le Guin at the Brisbane International Film Festival. I hope some of you might make it there. The panel will consist of Isobelle Carmody, Lian Hearn (Gillian Rubenstein), and artist, Emily Floyd, and celebrates the release of a new short film about Le Guin’s life. The film is wonderful, as will be the discussion, with each panelist having a unique take on Le Guin’s work.
The complete four-volume, Aurealis Award–shortlisted, science fiction epic: “An engaging space opera with plenty of action” (Publishers Weekly).

In a near-future where privatised health care has sent the cost of over-the-counter medicine soaring, terrorists execute a well-planned attack on the world’s pharmaceutical companies.
Ella West is an ex-pat Australian living in New York City when the coup begins and is mistakenly imprisoned for suspected terrorist activity.
On her release she finds her partner, Joah, has passed away because of lack of treatment due to the malfunctioning health care system. As the city descends into chaos, she plans to leave, but is is asked a favour by a friend — to transport his teenage daughter to safety in South Carolina. Ella heads south, planning to honour her friend’s wish and then find a way back across the Mexican border and home to Australia. But in the turmoil that unfolds, her life changes forever.
