My 34th book finished in 2023.
I bought this book in a second-hand bookstore in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I read it in Da Nang, Vietnam and left it in a book cafe in Hoi An.
Entertaining to read, especially after visiting the same places Michael did and comparing it to my own experiences, nearly 30 years later.
It definitely adds to the show. A little slow in places, and some of the language is a bit dated in the 2020s, ie use of "Indians" to refer to the native Andean people etc.
