'The Secret River' and 'Convict Society and its Enemies'

The Secret River I have just been given by Jo, who ordered it from Pearson. It is very well written and deals with the grim background of the convict hero and his wife and how they make good in the colony against overwhelming odds. At the moment in the book they seem to be seizing their opportunities. William has been trained as a boatman on the Thames and gets land on the Hawksbury. I'm not sure how the book ends.
