I really, really enjoyed it. Very fresh and lively, it was like sitting next to you in person. A fund of interesting anecdotes and observations. Peter
I really enjoyed the read, incredible, yet so vivid I could see you there following your adventures. Dorothy
I thoroughly enjoyed your book and the (website) photos, can’t quite believe some of the escapades you got up to and that you survived (literally) to tell the tales. Ruth
It's a great read and very professional. Peter
Thanks for letting me read your adventures, it's lovely. Gill
What a wonderful read. The diary of your experiences did three things for me -
they brought back memories and events of my own time in Malaysia and filled me with nostalgia for a time that will never come back; it told me many things about you; I learned a lot about Barn owls. Ismail
I was so absorbed by the sights, sounds and smells of Malaysia. So descriptive, you write brilliantly. What a wonderful experience you had and how your work with owls made a contribution to rodent control and humanity. An achievement to be proud of through tenacious work and extreme conditions. I enjoyed your book very much.Thank you. Rosie
One young Englishman's tale of journeying halfway around the world to study the biology and behaviour of Barn owls in 1970s Malaysia. His funny and light-hearted misadventures turned into a serious quest to introduce owls as an ecologically sustainable alternative to the use of chemical rodenticides in the palm oil industry. A delightful little gem. B.H. Kwa
A wide ranging account of the author's experiences. Very personal but with acute wildlife observations. Amazon
