PODCAST: 2025 Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize - featuring the shortlist

What do you get when two authors are invited to talk to each other? No, there isn't a punchline for a bad 'Dad joke' coming next - you get a great conversation!

Foundation Director, Georgina Brown, was joined in the virtual podcast studio with all six authors shortlisted for the 2025 Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize. This is book chat at it's finest, direct from the author's mouth. With three double-header episodes, the authors had a chance to chat to each other about their books, their writing journeys and, of course, their own sense of adventure. 

Tune in, listen in any order and let them keep you company.
