    Himalayan Hideout

    An enjoyable story; good fun, with a great pace, and the natural world woven into it without it being too obvious. Plus the author has a fantastic reading voice.

    Lemurs of the Lost World

    “Excellent travel adventure story and introduction to peoples, animals and environments in Madagascar. If you're thinking about going on an expedition to somewhere like Madagascar and fancy a dry-run in an armchair first, this is your book.”
