Book Signing with Matthew Reilly at Collins ABC Werribee

Saturday, 10 December from  2:30pm

After graduating from Sydney's St Aloysius' College in 1992, Matthew studied Law at the University of New South Wales. Matthew wrote his first book Contest while just 19 and self-published it in 1996. It was rejected by every major publishing company in Sydney, leading Matthew to self-publish 1,000 copies using money borrowed from his family. Matthew's second book, Ice Station was also written whilst a student at the University of NSW.

Matthew owns several movie prop reproductions including a life-size statue of Han Solo frozen in carbonite (Star Wars), a golden idol (Raiders of the Lost Ark) and a DeLorean DMC-12 (Back to the Future). A big fan of hollywood blockbusters, Matthew hopes to direct one of his own books as movies some day.

Matthew Reilly is the international bestselling author of eight novels: The Six Sacred Stones, Seven Deadly Wonders, Ice Station, Temple, Contest, Area 7, Scarecrow, and the children's book Hover Car Racer and one novella, Hell Island. His books are published in more than eighteen languages in twenty countries, and he has sold more than 3.5 million copies worldwide.
