"How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea" open thread.

I have been asked to create an open thread for discussion of "How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea." As it has been out for a week now (gasp! so soon!), this seems reasonable to me. So here you go: here is an open thread.

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.

Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned. (I will not reply to every comment; I call partial comment amnesty. But I may well join some of the discussion, or answer questions or whatnot.) I will be DELETING all comments containing spoilers which have been left on other posts. No one gets to spoil people here without a label.

You can also start a discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence, since I always wind up getting involved in these things.

Have fun, and try not to bleed on the carpet.

I enjoyed the story, although I will admit it is not suitable bedtime reading for me. /wry grin/

It's not entirely relevant to the story line, and the answer may possibly be spoilery for future stories, in which case HERE BE SPOILERS is an appropriate reply, but I found myself wondering what happened to the Aborigines living in the bush. Did some of them get end up staying behind the Fence?

Yes, some of them did, and they're doing quite well.

As I discovered recently, Pilbara aborigines have stories which warn them about cannibal zombies.
