Excerpt: ...In awful cataracts, which leap'd Downward from dizzy height, Till soon 'twould reach the spot of ground Where, horror-struck, I glared around Upon the dreadful sight! But now from that volcano vast A roar came down like cyclone blast! I gazed in fresh amaze; For just above the crater's rim Three fearful Phantoms, huge and grim, Were thron'd amid the blaze High on a vast putrescent heap Of ghastly oxen, steeds, and sheep, Which well became the three! They seem'd to grin with horrid mirth Upon the God-forsaken earth, And on unhappy me! Despairing wrath within me grew, And I address'd that ghostly crew; I asked what they might find To raise their mirth? When one and all Affirmed they had been, since the fall, The scourges of mankind. That human dread was their delight, A trophy of their ruthless might; Murder, and deadly strife, Earthquakes and plagues, were pastimes rare, With famine gaunt, and wild despair, And all the ills of life. I then perceived, that as they spoke, A name, in flaming letters broke Out on each livid brow; At which the grimmest cried--" Behold! "For to us, all the North is sold--"Our wretched slave art thou! "To me thou dost unwilling pay "A teeming sacrifice each day "Of oxen, steeds, and sheep, "Which these my servants, good and true, "Wring from vile earthworms such as you, "And on mine altars heap. "And now the solemn rites to crown, "Thyself shall soon be stricken down--"To me resign thy breath; "For tortured in that burning sea "A prey thou shalt become to me, "Thine enemy--King Death!"

Book excerpt: Throughout Bobby Wabalanginy's young life the ships have been arriving, bringing European settlers to the south coast of Western Australia, where Bobby's people, the Noongar people, have always lived. Bobby, smart, resourceful and eager to please, has befriended the settlers, joining them as they hunt whales, till the land, and work to establish their new colony. He is welcomed into a prosperous white family and eventually finds himself falling in love with the daughter, Christine.But slowly - by design and by hazard - things begin to change. Not everyone is so pleased with the progress of the white colonists. Livestock mysteriously starts to disappear, crops are destroyed, there are 'accidents' and injuries on both sides. As the Europeans impose ever-stricter rules and regulations in order to keep the peace, Bobby's Elders decide they must respond in kind, and Bobby is forced to take sides, inexorably drawn into a series of events that will for ever change the future of his country.That Deadman Dance is haunted by tragedy, as most stories of first contact between European and native peoples are. But through Bobby's life, this novel exuberantly explores a moment in time when things might have been different, when black and white lived together in amazement rather than fear of the other, and when the world suddenly seemed twice as large and twice as promising.
