In Musa’s award-winning Fierceland, two siblings reckon with their late father’s legacy of violence and environmental exploitation in a gripping tale that traverses Los Angeles, Sydney and the jungles of Borneo.

Savage’s The Ruiners tells the story of a young couple who move to an idyllic Greek island after coming into an unexpected inheritance – and find themselves ensnared in an environmental struggle that brings the mistakes of the past into sharp relief.

These two brilliant authors speak with Steph Harmon.
