I’m thrilled to announce my incredible new book project for chuffer-nutters and travel fans everywhere! Epic Adventures: Explore the World in 12 Amazing Train Journeys will be steaming into bookshops in February 2022 - and is available to pre-order now!

Epic Adventures is a fully-illustrated non-fiction hardback extravaganza, giving readers a whistle-stop tour of the world’s 12 most fascinating railway journeys, brought to life in gorgeous technicolour by the immensely talented illustrator Sam Brewster. Perfect for young readers and curious adults alike, this book is packed with details of the people and places woven together by the iron ribbons of these incredible journeys. Come with us on a round-the-world trip to discover the delights, dangers and secret histories of railways across the globe. Much on ekiben as your Japanese bullet train shakes cherry blossom from trees beside ancient temples - and board the iron-clad war trains of the Russian Revolution as they rumble past woolly mammoths buried in the Siberian tundra.

There are plenty of books out there about the history of trains, and how trains work, but I could never find a book that explained what I find most interesting about railways - where they go, and why. I’m delighted to have partnered with Kingfisher to produce this book - and I can’t wait for youh to see the jaw-dropping beauty of Sam Brewster’s illustrations.
