Himalayan Hideout

Another great adventure story! I love how the author feeds us enticing descriptions of Himalayan culture and wildlife all while keeping us on the edge of our seats with the exciting plot. This was hugely enjoyable.

Snowfed Waters

Following her own quietly gut-wrenching memoir, A Glimpse of Eternal Snows, Dr Jane Wilson-Howarth - Wanderlust's resident GP for the past 20 years - returns to Nepal in more fictional form for Snowfed Waters. Sonia is the downcast singleton-turned-charity worker whose richly drawn adventures in the Himalaya force her to rethink her low self-esteem.

Himalayan Kidnap

The perfect blend of nature's beauty and also it's brutality. Fascinating adventure story interspersed with lots of fart and poo jokes which keeps the tenser moments lighter, Gorgeous jungle sound effects accompany the voice of the narrator/author, who does a great job of putting one in the mind of a teenage lad. I learned a lot about animals and fauna of the jungle which was a pleasant bonus. As for the storyline, even before you get to the pinnacle threat of humans, it's one hazard to the next along the way; from leopards to near-drowning, to ghosts and cave rescues. And even sunbathing with crocodiles! 
Make-shift jungle medicine, Friends and foes. This book has it all! Really enjoyed going on the journey with the boys. Need to read the next one now...
