Winner of the The Esther Glen Award for Junior Fiction 2015
Set in 1978 against the Bastion Point occupation, Conrad Cooper’s Last Stand is junior fiction full of humour but with a powerful core. Award-winning author Leonie Agnew has created a surprising, brave and totally engaging novel for young readers.
Dear Tane, I’ve never prayed to a god, so hope this is okay. If I get it wrong, don’t strike me down with a thunderbolt or anything - I’m just a kid.
Conrad Cooper needs a favour. He’s just found out about Tane, the god of the forest, and he’s decided that Tane is the perfect guy to solve his family problems. After all, the more high-profile gods probably have huge waiting lists, right? In return, Conrad will do anything to repay Tane, no matter how much trouble it causes. But will a Maori god listen to the prayers of a ten-year-old Pakeha boy? And, worse still, does Tane even exist?
