“Gripping…plenty of thrills…weaves
autobiography and traveller’s tales, covers three
decades and reveals how Reeve changed his life, step by
step. Reeve is a most likeable travelling companion, and
the joy of the open road radiates from these pages”

leading international weekly for literary culture
“Compelling…From
Kyrgyzstan to the Tropic of Cancer, his BBC exploits have
shone a light on some of the world’s most forgotten
corners. But Simon Reeve’s own journey from troubled
teenager to TV star has been every bit as turbulent as his
on-screen adventures” –

“Cracking stories from his travels”

Adventurer of the Year
“Astounding,
intimate, gripping… More adventures than most of us
would experience in several lifetimes. Reeve’s
appetite for adventure is palpable. And this vivid account
of his fascinating, often hair-raising crusades feels more
like an enthralling exchange over coffee with a friend than
a formal autobiography” -
