Sascha Stronach is a creature of unknown origin, said to dwell somewhere in the forests of the Wellington region. He is a stout, exceptionally hairy hominid, believed to be a distant relative of mankind. Every year, hunters gather at the top of Ohiro Road for “StronaChon” and sell plush animals and cheap beer before charging into the park, whereupon they spend a pleasant afternoon accidentally tranquilising each other. His first novel, The Dawnhounds, was found in a small shrine made of sticks and castoff cans of VB lager. A team of experts have stated it is "a wonderful queer noir fever dream", and have passed it onto the team at Unity Books for further study.
