Hi there,

Depends on what you are looking for. If you want to get that little bit more depressed while-u-wait then try looking at the Explore Australia book. Full of good snippets about all the different states etc and homes in on certain areas, good pics as well.

One for the wish I was there!

Try 'On the beach' by Nevil Shute, set in Melbourne, with trips to Cape York Peninsula, Cairns and Townsville - poignant story, some love interest, period feel, environmental theme.
