Críticas:
A rollicking adventure story and ultimately an exploration of the nature of prejudice (Washington Post)
An absolutely splendid novel that works on multiple levels ... it's a parable about the fate of Australia's first people, and about the impact of humans on the environment, but it's also a bloody good yarn, told in beautifully crafted, dry and understated prose (Bookgeeks)
A tale for adults packed with entertainment, insight, pathos and a satirical punch. (The Bookbag)

Albert is a duck-billed platypus, who has escaped from a zoo in Adelaide to look for somewhere that may, or may not, exist: Old Australia, a place where humans never venture, and animals still rule. Albert knows it's somewhere in the middle of the Outback - not the ideal habitat for a water-loving animal - but now he's lost and close to death.
He's saved, though, by Jack, a pyromaniac, sardine-loving wombat, who promptly gets him into even worse trouble taking him to a marsupial-only bar run by a kangaroo called O'Hanlin, getting him drunk and then burning the bar down. And this is just the beginning of Albert's adventure ...
A glorious romp of a novel, Albert of Adelaide is a story of friendship, loyalty and heroism. And marsupials. Pacy and poignant, it's completely original -- a book for people (and animals) of all ages.
