Order of David Thorne Books

David Thorne is an Australian humorist known for his books that compile his stories and essays, with his most famous work being The Internet is a Playground, which includes funny email exchanges and anecdotes from his life. He gained widespread attention in 2008 when one of his email exchanges went viral, in which he attempted to settle an overdue bill with a drawing of a seven-legged spider.
