An integral part of the Aussie Authors website is the book reviews.  Without our dedicated team of reviewers, this would not be possible.

Below you will find a list of our reviewers, a brief bio, and their review preferences.

To organise a review of your book, go to the services page for details. (This is a free service)

  • The fiction books Warren likes to review cover all genres except horror and erotica.  He also finds most non-fiction works of interest,  and claims it is a great way to expand his knowledge of the world around him.  His favourite genre is young adult novels, as they allow the imagination to explore new worlds without any inhibitions.
