Review:
From the Back Cover:
‘Refreshing, whimsical and often laugh-out-loud funny... Kathmandu is lovingly and convincingly depicted, the scenic description often breathtaking’
WASHINGTON POST
George and Fred wanted to hang out in Nepal, relax a bit. They didn’t reckon rescuing a real, live yeti, scaling Mount Everest, trying to save the mystical city of Shangri-La, getting chased by the US Secret Service, joining forces with a 431-year-old Tibetan and maybe even starting World War III.
But then, you never do ...
“Refreshing, whimsical and often laugh-out-loud funny ... Kathmandu is lovingly and convincingly depicted, the scenic description often breathtaking”
WASHINGTON POST
“A delightful romp”
