Earth Dragon Fire Hare
The conflict in Malaysia during and after World War Two, as seen from the perspectives of a Kiwi soldier (Peter) and a Chinese Malay freedom fighter (Ng). Against a background of culture clash and political and individual conflicts, two young men are drawn inexorably together as victims and products of the Malay conflict.
Will events or their deeper selves guide them when their backs are against the wall? An action-packed, compelling, and ultimately moving book about a war in which New Zealand participated, but which has not been written about.
Earth Dragon Fire Hare offers a unique glimpse into an aspect of history that remains largely unspoken, weaving personal and broader historical threads into a narrative of courage and humanity.
