Lands of Red and Gold #2
The Proxy Dance
Aururia: a different Australia where a new crop emerged thousands of years and changed societies across the continent.
Aururian peoples had little contact with the outside world, until the Maori first visited in 1310, and then the Dutch in 1619. The Dutch and English trading companies have established their first toeholds on the continent. The two companies are seeking to control the people of Aururia, and exploit its wealth for their own profits.
As the English and Dutch battle each other across the continent, the Aururians face the greatest challenge in their history. Can they find a way to maintain their independence and turn the invaders' technology and weapons against them?

About the author
Jared Kavanagh
16 books20 followersJared Kavanagh is an Australian author of alternate history and other speculative fiction. He took up writing as an occupation after trying over seventy other jobs in his life. He has worked in fields such as town planning, sales, customer service IT, mediation, occupational rehabilitation, academia, and many others. None of those jobs have lasted more than a couple of years. He plans to keep writing for much longer than that.
His shortest job lasted three hours. He had been told the job was graphic design, but when he started the job turned out to be data entry. So he went on an early lunch break and never came back. He quickly learned not to list most of his jobs on his résumé after one interviewer asked him when he was going to stop his career promiscuity. He decided it was easier to stop listing most jobs than it was to stop the career promiscuity.
