Just found this review published by Visor Down.
It starts: 'Working hard and long hours as a shop manager on Jersey, he found himself dissatisfied and yearning. With fears of retail recession casting a shadow and personal restlessness nipping at his heels, Manicom searched for something to appease his inner sense of adventure.
He learned to ride a motorbike. Within three months, his first journey, from the top of Africa to the bottom, had begun. By the time he had reached the southern tip of Africa, he had been arrested, jailed, shot at, knocked unconscious in the Namibian desert, escaped a bush fire and climbed a mountain. Needless to say, he was hooked...'
And my favourite line? 'The deep red of the African earth glows under Manicom’s pen.'

Many thanks to Visor Down and to their reviewer Christopher Dodd.
