All three books in The Moorehawke Trilogy (The Poison Throne, The Crowded Shadows, and The Rebel Prince) have gone on to international publication, being translated into nine languages and published in the English language territories of UK, US[7] and AUS/NZ. In 2010, the trilogy was included in Dymocks "Kids' Top 51".[8]
