We're dedicated to exploring Australian writing, looking into the issues that drive our storytelling to discover more from the books you love. These are the stories that make us who we are. Sam Elliott is a writer and podcaster. He’s the host of ‘The Write Way’, and joins us today with his debut novel Haze. The fires ringing the town of Broughlet should be Constable Dahlia Turner’s main concern as she drives from house to house warning residents to evacuate. Instead the town’s people are threatening their own destruction as a local industrialist clashes with a secretive church in the hills. Now Dahlia has found the bodies of her two closest friends in the wreckage of their home, murdered. Their child is missing and the fires are drawing closer.

    Brendan Colley’s The Season for Flying Saucers
    May 8 2026
    The Final Draft podcast is all about books, writing and literary culture. We're dedicated to exploring Australian writing, looking into the issues that drive our storytelling to discover more from the books you love. These are the stories that make us who we are. Brendan Colley’s first novel The Signal Line won the Unpublished Manuscript Prize in the 2019 Tasmanian Premier’s Literary Awards, and was shortlisted for the Victorian Premier’s Literary Awards and The Age Book of the Year. Today Brendan joins us with his new novel The Season for Flying Saucers. When the lights appear on the first night of summer Hobart is abuzz. It’s shaping up to be a good season. Noah is skeptical. Life is spiraling more than a little for him; estranged from his family, his wife has left and he’s just been fired from his job. There’s really nothing to leave behind if they do come to get him. But weird has followed Noah ever since that night twelve years ago when they took his father, and this Season for Flying Saucers is shaping up to be a doozy.
