An alternate history of Australia during the horrendous years of the 1800s, when a nation was being carved out of a penal colony. The world was going through enormous change and in some small way, Terrence Null, ex naval lieutenant, experienced every problem dealing with ex-convicts given their freedom. The justice of Null, Terrence Null after he was told, he was to be a Justice of the Peace.
The year is 1857, two years before Queensland is proclaimed a State. Terrence Null had been given 500 acres to keep him away from Sydney town. The scene is now seven years later and things have changed in Australia’s politics. Because of Terrence Null’s past, mayhem turns the village of Null into a story of lies, deceit, and plans of a rebellion by women to run a republic in the village of Null. Terrence Null was honest in a sort of a way, if it suited him, and planned a way of teaching the ex-convicts a lesson. What happens reveals all the social issues confronting every major power in the world, during the 1800s, unfolded one day at a time. Each day life produced evidence of just what was the justice of Null, Terrence Null.
This is book one of Hollow Log stories. Book two is Ocker Oscar. Book three is To Kill a Bunyip. Terrence Null and his descendants in three stories in different genres; Satire written in Myth Fantasy and Alternative history. One wonders if Terrence Null did exist.
