About this audiobook

From the internationally bestselling author of The Thorn Birds comes a breathtaking saga brimming with drama, history, and passion set in 18th-century Australia, following a wrongfully convicted man whose courage, resilience, and hope help forge a new life on the brutal colonial frontier.

Following the disappearance of his only son and the death of his beloved wife, Richard Morgan is falsely imprisoned and exiled to the penal colonies of 18th-century Australia. His life is shattered but Morgan refuses to surrender, overcoming all obstacles to find unexpected contentment and happiness in the harsh early days of Australia's settlement.

From England’s shores to Botany Bay and the rugged frontier of a hostile new world, Morgan’s Run is the epic tale of love lost and found, and the man whose strength and character helped settle a country and define its future.

What a pity they decided to abridge this book. It's like a sandwich with the filling taken out - not at all satisfying and leaves you still hungry. Nicely read but so much missing
