Australia finally succumbs to global economic turmoil, and it goes down. Hard. A strong gust of wind blows a suicide-attempt onto Dave Holden’s balcony. That’s where it begins. Australia is sliding towards economic and social collapse, and the race is on to exploit the chaos - and Dave has placed himself squarely in the middle of it all. Jenny Lucas, rising Hollywood star and half of the Holden-Lucas power couple, flees Queensland as both bush fires and looting spread south, pursued by madmen and criminals. A bush militia with political aspirations tries to promote its cause and its profile, despite radical elements within who just want to fight. A crime boss, betrayed by his own people, chases the gang of traitors as they make a play for his broader enterprise. In the midst of the madness is Epoch, an opportunist who stokes the flames with random acts of destruction and targeted tweets. DRAW THE BRISBANE LINE is a dark, funny, pre-apocalyptic misadventure.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A thoroughly good story By Ignite The title comes from a supposed WW2 defence line on the map of Australia which divided the continent up in the event of invasion by Japan. In this ‘not too far in the future’ story, the idea is resurrected. The banks have crashed, people are bankrupt and law and order breaks down. Queenslanders form a militia to fight to defend their own territory, which would be lost in the event of invasion – though they can’t agree on who the invader will be. The core of the Queenslanders is made up of sensible and concerned citizens but it inevitably accretes a crust of violent psychopaths out to loot and kill. In the middle of this, star couple Dave, a tennis ace, and Jenny, a Hollywood star, are separated – right in the middle of a row.You never get two books the same from Paul Fenton. No formulaic, cookie-cutter clones with him. I love the fact that there are lots of characters, all with a real part to play. If you teased one out, there’d be something missing from the tale. He writes eloquent and intelligent prose into which he injects a dark humour. This story played out in my mind like an action movie and I rushed along in its wake. It’s sobering to think how easily the civilisation we cherish can break down. A thoroughly good story.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A compelling read! By Sheri A. Wilkinson Draw the Brisbane Line by P.A. FentonAustralia is about to collapse economically and socially and chaos begins. Dave Holden decides to find his brother Tom, who is a Politician. Jenny Lucas is a Hollywood star and Dave's girlfriend. She flees Queensland, which is being looted, with fires all around. Add to this a crazed man named Epoch who leaves trail of destruction wherever he goes.Dave and Jenny are likable. They are facing personal problems, along with the devastation surrounding them. Epoch is a trouble maker, and not a pleasant person. An action filled (dark comedy) which moves at an even pace. Attention to detail, and rich dialog bring you into the story.There is a lot of action, drama, tension, and (dark) humor. Overall I found Draw the Brisbane Line, original, compelling, intense, an enjoyable read. I feel others will like it as well.* I received this book in exchange for an honest review
