Book Chat With Australian Author Max Davine - Mar 21,2014

This week Ken speaks with Max Davine, author of Terra Domina, Angel Valence, Dino Hunt, Off The Map and Red Region. Max shares his writing process, from research of different time periods (Angel Valence) to paleontology, (Dino Hunt) Max Davine grew up in Melbourne's inner eastern suburbs, with the first ten years lived in a house which also accommodated his parents, sister, uncle and grandparents (mother's side). Davine was always fascinated by the different stories three generations of his Hungarian born family, as well as those of his cousins and family scattered across Europe after the war. ?Often falling behind in school due to drifting off into the worlds in his mind painted by their fascinating stories, Davine took to his high-school musical productions as a way of mending his shaky academic reputation. Acting and writing became his number one pursuit in the years after. Max's first 2 books (Terra Domina and Angel Valence) are available from Amazon http://www.asjpublishing.com/max-davine.html
