Our Authors
Scouring the country for Australia’s next Tim Wintons, Kate Grenvilles, Kerry Greenwoods, Maggie Aldersons, and Peter Fitzsimons, Pantera Press, a new voice in Australian publishing, fosters the best of Australia’s new literary talent. Our first list launched through 2010 with 6 new titles and 8 authors across fiction and non-fiction, followed in 2011 with second books from some of our authors, as well as fresh debut talent. We have more coming through 2012 and beyond from our growing stable of talented authors.
Pantera Press believes Australia has quality bestseller-potential story-tellers who simply aren't getting published.
Our aim is to discover, nurture and publish these authors, so they can become part of Australia's next generation of best-loved story-tellers. Here are some of them.
