Brian Falkner

He's the award winning author of seventeen books for children and young adults, published in over twelve countries in seven different languages.
For the last eight years Brian has also been touring the world teaching and coaching students in creative writing. His energy and humour make his workshops a fun and rewarding experience for young writers and his sessions are in high demand.
His latest book is 'Shooting Stars' which has already been called the 'YA Book of the Year' by leading reviewers in Australia and New Zealand.
Egan Tucker is fifteen and has been in hiding his entire life.
He has never known television, the Internet or even electricity.
He has never seen hot and cold running water or a flush toilet.
His food comes from the forest or the stream, not from a supermarket.
The boundaries of his world are the hills surrounding the valley he calls home.
But Egan's life is about to change.
Forced to leave, he must venture out into a world that is unlike anything he has ever known.
He is not ready for this world.
And the world is not ready for Egan.
