Environment award for Lucy and the WhaleFamily award for Fracture Zone
Jonathan Harlen was born in New Zealand but now lives in coastal New South Wales, near Byron Bay, with his wife and three young children. He runs a small farm, where he grows coffee beans and cabinet timbers. He has published many books in various genres and for various age groups. They including the much-acclaimed young adult novel, The Lion and the Lamb, Fireflies (also for young adults), and The Cockroach War (for younger readers). Jonathan feels he has found his niche in writing comic novels for the 8-12 age group, and Brain Scam is to be followed by several more in the same madcap vein.
'An enormously entertaining novel. This original witty storyteller is rapidly rising up through the ranks of Australia's popular selling authors ... Brain Scamis a ride through sheer hell, with chuckles all the way!'Magpies'I would like to recommend this book to anyone who likes science fiction with humorous parts and a good Australian story with wacky inventions like skin magnet mobile phones.' Mathew, Whyalla, SA'A madcap adventure boys particularly will enjoy. Lots of humour...A pacy read for good readers of 10 plus.' Well Read, NZ
