Moondyne is an adventure novel set in 19th-century Australia, written by Irish author John Boyle O'Reilly. It is inspired by the life of a real convict, Joseph "Moondyne Joe" Johns, who became a folk hero due to his multiple escapes from prison. The novel follows the story of Joe, an outlaw with a sense of justice, as he battles against the harsh penal system and colonial authorities. Through Joe's journey, O'Reilly critiques the brutality of convict life and explores themes of freedom, redemption, and the spirit of rebellion in the harsh Australian outback.
