Win a signed copy of Hannes Barnard’s out-of-this world novel

Two lucky readers will each win a copy of Haness Barnard's outstanding novel, Halley se Komeet, which was launched last week.

Halley’s Comet is one of those once-in-a-lifetime occurrences.

This celestial body is central to local author, Hannes Barnard’s new book – Halley se Komeet – and now two readers can win a once-in-a-lifetime signed copy.

The book was launched last week at The Pines Wedding & Conference Village.

For more on the book launch, be sure to pick up this week’s edition of the Newcastle Advertiser (August 23).

Here is a brief description of the novel:

“As jy gelukkig is, sien jy Halley se komeet eenkeer in jou leeftyd. Pete de Lange kon nie voorsien dat sy Halley-se-komeet-oomblink gaan wees waar hy saam met twee totale vreemdelinge vir hul lewens vlug nie. Dit pas nie by sy planne in nie. Hy’s in standerd agt, veronderstel om eerstespanrugby te speel en sy droommeisie se hart te wen.

“Die vraag is, gaan hy hierdie komeet se stert gryp en toelaat dat dit hom meesleur op ‘n avontuur van vernuwing, of gaan hy sy rug daarop draai, veilig speel, en die risiko loop om altyd te wonder: ‘Wat as’?”

Author, Hannes Barnard, with Johan Pieters of the Champ Group of Companies, at the ‘Halley se Komeet’ book launch, which took place at The Pines Wedding & Conference Village last week.
