This dazzling account of an Aboriginal man coming to terms with his roots is a refreshing and convincing antidote to all the usual interpretations of this wonderful culture. It has a sweep and ambition that is rare.

Have you lost your lore?

Billy has. He's loreless.

Indigenous urbanite Billy doesn't know much about his heritage and he's quite content to let it stay that way.
One late night out changes all that.

Marooned on an outback highway in Central Australia, with only the stars and mosquitoes for company, he regrets trusting his friends with his well being.

Under the watchful eye of the mysterious supernatural entity Pidgin and armed with a dogged desire to get home, he discovers the lore he never knew he had lost.

Sometimes it's impossible to get home.
Especially if home is not where you think it is.

Following in the footsteps of Paul Coelho and the early work of Thomas Keneally, Loreless takes you on a fictional journey into one of the world's oldest cultures.

This is one adventure story which will keep you intrigued until its compelling conclusion.

Part quest, part ghost story, and part contemporary fable, author P J Whittlesea combines magic, mysticism, wisdom and wonder into an inspiring tale of self-discovery.

Packaged in an adventure story rich with jewels of anecdotes and insight, Loreless is as enlightening as it as enthralling.

Beautiful, confrontational and ultimately uplifting, this is a story which is intimate and universal all at once.

Available now in ebook or paperback. Read this inspiring and remarkable story today.

Industry Reviews

"Absorbing, thoughtful and a great look at an almost unknown culture wrapped in an original story." -Cassia Meare, author of The World and I.

This strong and compelling narrative pulls the reader along with a man who has absolutely no idea where he's going, and it's a journey that's well worth taking."-Tom Lichtenberg, author of Snapdragon Alley.
