The Locust Years by Russell Clark has recently been released by Jabiru Publishing. It tells the story of Joe and Jeremy, who are great mates as well as brothers. However, beneath their close friendship lies an undercurrent of intense rivalry which surfaces when Jenny comes into their lives. Their relationship is severely tested when lies, accusations and betrayal land Joe in prison for a crime he did not commit. As he fights against this injustice, he comes to understand that his biggest battle is stored within himself, in his own bitterness and anger.
Russell Clark’s debut novel is a cleverly constructed and presented exploration of important issues such as sibling rivalry, jealousy, the power of forgiveness, the true meaning of love, the strengths and benefits inherent in friendship, and the comforts provided by religious belief. Russell is working on a sequel to his first novel, and it is certain to be as intricate, challenging and satsfying as The Locust Years.
