The Burn Card product reviews

O'Malley makes his living at the poker table, but he also has a reputation for solving problems the police won't touch. When an acquaintance asks him to look into his nephew's unexplained death, O'Malley figures there is little harm in helping out. But in Auckland's underworld, no favour stays simple for long.

Now he is investigating a young man, the cause of whose death nobody powerful enough cared to investigate, and a rigged card game that has drawn the attention of people who collect debts with extreme prejudice.

As the heat rises from every direction, only Claire - O'Malley's smartest and most reluctant accomplice - can keep him from getting burned.

Product reviews for listing 9155: Tama and the Taniwha -  Written by Melanie Koster

"Don't put your puku in the water! The taniwha will get you!"

Tama is down at the lake with his sisters and grandparents. When his sisters tease him about a taniwha being in the water, he takes a deep breath and dives in anyway. What is that wonderful swirling, sparkling apparition? Is it a taniwha... or is it something else altogether?

This story about sibling teasing and family fun will resonate with everyone. Monica Koster's illustrations are a delight, complementing the text beautifully.
