A story of action, adventure, and young love is set against the backdrop of a time of great change, as the peace and love era of the 1960s gives way to the freedom revolution of the 1970s. Sex and drugs and rock and roll? Sure. That and so much more. So much to learn and so fast: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Five teens set adrift in that era experience and absorb everything life throws at them as they traverse that difficult bridge that will take them from mid-teens to young adults. It's a story today's teens will find fascinating, and somewhat confronting to think that their parents actually did some of these things. The Fearless Five - Jordie, Jess, Marty, Robbie, and Josh - were about to embark on a life-changing journey. No more little kid stuff; things were getting serious. Set in Tasmania at the end of the swinging sixties, A Journey of Discovery picks up their story as they are about to enter their last year of high school. But it's outside of school where they gain a real education. The school of life - it's a great teacher - but unlike school it rarely gives second chances. Stuff up in the real world and the consequences can be brutal. But make the right decisions and the payoff could be huge, as Jordie and Jess through the music they create are about to discover.
Author/songwriter David J. McMullen lives in Melbourne, Australia.
