By Ray Battersby

Paperback | English

5.0 (1 review)

It is 1810. Aotearoa-New Zealand is a wild and untamed place and is populated almost entirely by Maori – The Children of Heaven.
Back in America, a frontiersman named Bret Walker is on a mission to ship a crate of army muskets back home to his wilderness settlement, at Snake River. He and his neighbours are under attack there by the local Gros Ventre native-American Indian tribe.
Unfortunately, the ship and crew he picks for the mission have different plans for both the muskets, and for him.
They set sail instead, to the Dutch East Indies, intending to sell him there, as a field slave.

So begins Bret’s journey, to a land and people, raw and unyielding. A place where only the strongest can survive. A place where the reward for the smallest of mistakes, is most likely to be death.

Ray Battersby was born in Whanganui in 1952, and moved to Wellington in 1969. He lives there happily still, with his wife, Bobbi. Throughout this time, Ray has been active in music and newspapers, and also helped put together the Beatles In New Zealand, tv documentary. His favourite things in life include, the Beatles, books, music and movies.
This book is the first in a trilogy, The Children of Heaven, which he has been working on for over ten years. It is his first published novel.

  1. Susan –

    I really enjoyed the book and will be on the lookout for the next book in the Trilogy. Easy reading – vivid descriptions & plenty of variations in the source of the action.
