The Jim Carrey of travel writing is off again on a death-defying and hilarious journey through darkest Africa ...
Welcome to the latest hilarious instalment in the travels of Peter Moore, bestselling author of NO SHITTING IN THE TOILET, THE WRONG WAY HOME and THE FULL MONTEZUMA. This time Peter has found the perfect antidote for a broken heart: to pick up his backpack and trek from the southernmost tip of Africa to the pyramids of Egypt by any means possible. But of course!
Needless to say, almost every country along the way is in a state of political agitation and Peter must grapple with wild animals, civil wars, natural disasters and corrupt governments. Travelling on his own, it's inevitable that Peter falls in with the usual motley crew of locals and fellow travellers, and has plenty of misadventures -all recounted in his hilarious, gut-wrenching, bottom-clenching style.
'Moore has a parched dry wit, the solid brass cojones of a true traveller and a rare eye for the madness of the wider world.' JOHN BIRMINGHAM
