Kia ora whānau! It’s a nice inundation, being asked where one can buy your first adventure book, but it also makes me feel like I should jot down a few places where you can definitely acquire a copy.
Within New Zealand
Start with your brilliant, local book shop. Mt Eden’s Time Out Bookstore (where I launched The Big Loop) is a really cosy shop and has copies. Matakana Village Books had copies when I popped in at the weekend. I’ve also had verified reports that Unity Books in Wellington has stock this week. Remember to ask if you don’t immediately see it. It’s been popping up in all manner of sections: New Zealand, Cycling, Sport, Travel, NZ Non-Fiction and even True Crime (I made that last one up).
The bigger players on the high street are also stocking it. That means you can get it in Whitcoulls and Paper Plus.
If you prefer to take your spring water from the purest source near the summit, then you can buy online direct from the publisher, Bateman and have it delivered. A super-wide panoramic painting of other online sellers exist, so feel free to shop around on the web.
Within the international sphere
If you’re buying outside NZ, you can get a copy and global delivery from Fishpond. They also offer you bundles with some, err, interesting other titles, by authors with the same name as me. Don’t be fooled: The Big Loop is my first book. Out of stock at time of writing, but Book Despository also deliver worldwide from their website.
Thanks – I hope you track down a copy and enjoy it. Let me know!
