Books

Two books. Two very different genres.

Circling the Great Karoo (2008): A travelogue which sees the writer following the region's extensive fossil trail on an old scrambler motorcycle. It details his journey on the dirt tracks of the Great Karoo and blends the region's ancient and more modern history with his experiences and the people he meets along the way.

Karoo Tales and Images (2007): this limited edition work of fiction, contains O' Henry-like (sting-in-the-tail) short stories that combine his experiences of the people and places in the Karoo with his often quirky imagination.

The latter is only available from second-hand bookstores while Circling the Great Karoo is obtainable from Takealot and other online bookstores.
