Olympus Bound by Zoe Routh Wins Book of the Earth Award from Words of the Earth
Australia, 22nd Oct 2024, –
Words of the Earth reveals that Olympus Bound by Zoe Routh has been honoured with the Book of the Earth Award. This accolade celebrates literary works that masterfully weave together the themes of the natural world, environmental challenges, and the endless possibilities of human imagination.
In Olympus Bound, Zoe Routh explores the complexities of leadership in extreme environments, transporting readers to a Moonbase where survival depends not just on physical resilience, but on the strength of human connection and leadership. Through the eyes of Commander Xanthe Waters, Routh deftly illustrates the tension between humanity’s ambition to conquer new frontiers and the desperate need to preserve Earth’s dwindling resources.
The novel centres on Xanthe and her diverse crew as they navigate life on a Moonbase under constant threat—from scarce resources and meteor showers to fragile political alliances. More than just a tale of survival, Olympus Bound is an exploration of humanity’s quest to create sustainable environments even beyond our planet, mirroring the urgent environmental issues we face on Earth.
One of the most compelling aspects of the novel is how it juxtaposes life on the Moon with the fragility of Earth. The base’s greenhouse, a microcosm of Earth’s ecosystems, serves as a powerful symbol of humanity’s dependency on delicate, interconnected systems. Xanthe’s poignant reflections on her home planet, particularly her memories of a once-thriving Australia, draw attention to the irreversible damage done to Earth and the critical importance of sustainability, whether on the Moon or on our home planet.
Olympus Bound received high praise from the Book of the Earth review, which stated: “Figuratively speaking, Olympus Bound reads like a tightly wound thread, unspooling through space to remind us that no matter how far humanity ventures, our survival is always tethered to the delicate balance we must maintain with nature. Zoe Routh’s vivid storytelling not only brings to life the physical and psychological challenges of space exploration, but also highlights the enduring connection between our species and the ecosystems we depend on.”

Press Release
Cristobal Bull, Nowhere to Hide, The Islander, and What Mommy Doesn’t See Win April BREW Award
Australia, 1st May 2025, –
The Chrysalis BREW Project has announced the winners of the April 2025 BREW Readers’ Choice Award Book of the Month. The titles recognised this month are Cristobal Bull by Chris Corbett, Nowhere to Hide by Jude Austin, The Islander by David W. Berner, and What Mommy Doesn’t See by Karen Ledbetter.
Cristobal Bull by Chris Corbett was noted for its character construction and storytelling approach. The review from The Chrysalis BREW Project stated, “Corbett’s focus on the Bull’s past serves the story’s depth and flow well.” It also noted that the author “presents the Bull as a human being first, with motivations, history, and internal logic.”
Nowhere to Hide by Jude Austin was recognised for its exploration of interspecies dynamics and ethical complexity. The review highlighted, “The best parts of this book highlight what happens when two intelligent life forms attempt to understand each other without the option of walking away.”
David W. Berner’s The Islander was chosen for its portrayal of introspection and change. According to the review, the book is “not a travel story but a story of travelling inward, away from things, people, and situations, and toward clarity.”
Karen Ledbetter’s What Mommy Doesn’t See was recognised for its narrative focus and treatment of sensitive topics. The review noted that “Ledbetter handles sensitive scenes with a deliberate lack of over-dramatisation” and “presents the narrative from the child’s perspective without unnecessary exposition.”
