Review: Write more, Ms Preston!
Rating: 5 out of 5

The cover of this novella grabbed me!I admit...I usually don't read short stories unless they are spin-offs of a novel that I have already read because I enjoy connecting with characters---something hard to do in a short story. Ms Preston combines complex characters in the historic Australian rain forest, a setting which is new for me. I became hooked in the first few pages.Alice and Hunter captured my heart, and I cheered them on to the very end---which came way too fast! I hope to see more books from this new author. There is huge potential for more short stories or even a full length novel. The Outcasts is a well written quick read that I truly did not want to end.
