I have always loved Australia, but have never been able to go myself. When I saw Billabong Ghost was set in Australia and loosely based on real events I couldn't pass it up. There are three main characters. Alan Fife, a cattle baron, Charlotte the Billabong Ghost who was found murdered and Harry the boy who talked to Charlotte. The characters are well fleshed out and go with the storyline perfectly.It was interesting to read about Australia (the story is set outside of Sydney) and the folklore and way of life surrounding it. The dialect was sometimes hard to figure out, but I could usually decipher it by the context it was used. There is also a glossary at the back, and I found it interesting to read at the end to find out what some of the words were that I couldn't for the life of me understand.Overall a solid five stars!
