Great News!
If you’re looking for a FABULOUS SUMMER TRAVEL READ, the Kindle edition of my award-winning road trip memoir More Manchester Than Mongolia: An Unexpected Road Trip Through Back Road Britain, has been selected by Amazon UK for a 99p Kindle Deal throughout August.
After the promotion, the price goes back up to £2.99.
If you fancy coming along for the ride as we attempt to swap ordinary life for an epic overland expedition to Mongolia, this is the perfect opportunity. It all started with buying The Beast – a vintage six-wheel Belgian Army truck, sight unseen from the internet – then transforming it into the ultimate off-grid expedition vehicle for two humans and four dogs.
Naturally, things didn’t go fully according to plan…
Instead of crossing the steppes of Central Asia, our adventures took us on a wonderfully unexpected journey around Britain, proving that sometimes the best stories come from Plan B.
Packed with mechanical mishaps, comic disasters, memorable characters and plenty of canine chaos, it’s a travel memoir for anyone who enjoys laughing at life’s detours.
I’m delighted that besides gaining bestseller status, and garnering 234 reviews of 4* or above on Amazon since it’s publication 8 months ago, More Manchester Than Mongolia has also been:
- Awarded a Readers’ Favorite 5-Star Seal
- Finalist in the Adult Non-Fiction category of the Wishing Shelf Book Awards 2025
Readers have been wonderfully generous with their comments. ARC reviewer Drew Johnson summed things up by saying,:
“I haven’t laughed so much at the written word since Pam Ayres released Some of Me Poetry in 1976!”
If you’ve been meaning to read it – or know someone who loves humorous travel memoirs in the style of Bill Bryson or Ben Aitken – now’s the ideal time to grab a copy.
If you’ve already read it, THANK YOU!
And I would also be immensely grateful if you could leave a review on Amazon, Goodreads, or wherever you usually buy your books. Reviews are so important for authors, and help readers to find their next favourite read. And if you pop into Goodreads, marking any of my books as ‘Want to read’ will also really help the algorithms!
The 99p offer for Manchester is available throughout August on Amazon UK.
Happy reading… and remember, the journey doesn’t always end where you intended!
