"To make such worked-over material new and interesting, in other words, you have to be extremely good. Well then, Ms. McFarlane must be extremely good indeed, because her novel is a thrilling success. The Sun Walks Down intelligently continues Australia's historical and literary tradition but feels unburdened by its heritage and unconstrained by ideological agendas.

Ms. McFarlane spins a novel full of mystery and wonder."
