This Kingdom of Dust by David Dyer. In 1969 Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon and were then safely returned to Earth. In an alternative scenario, what if the lunar landing module failed and they couldn’t get back? It’s a compelling premise, told in three voices – that of Buzz on the moon, his wife Joan back in a US suburb surrounded by other astronauts’ wives waiting for news of her husband, and Aquarius, a journalist hired to write the story of the moon landing who got a lot more than he bargained for.

What I Ate in One Year by Stanley Tucci. The famous author and dedicated gourmet kept a record of his whereabouts and activities throughout 2023, including almost everything he ate. He’s selflessly dedicated to finding great food and takes enormous pleasure in thinking about, planning and then devouring his next meal. It’s a charming, interesting and easy to read diary – and he’s impressive in his commitment!

It's been a slow winter for Auckland - but the city's in for an extra boost when Coldplay touches down.

The band's 'Music of the Spheres' tour has caused a significant spike in Australia's hotel and aviation sectors, and it's likely similar growth will happen on this side of the ditch.

BloggerAtLarge.com writer Megan Singleton says last summer's Pink concert generated extra spending across the hospitality and tourism sectors - and there's a case for the Government to lure more big international events over.
