Interesting story, interesting author. I love reading about his travels to the far and hard to get to places, but I think it is a bit more rustic than even I would like to do in person. Not a bad read.

Sent off to azuki- as part of the armchair travel swap from bookobsessed

Book is here, thanks!!

Tried to read this a couple of years ago for the 666 challenge but then I got the S American countries taken care of, so I kind of shelf it till I need it for the challenge again.

In Trouble Again is an Englishman's journey up an unmapped tributary of the Amazon, facing snakes, scorpions, bullet ants, electric eels, piranhas, catfishes that eat children, spiders that eat birds, and all sorts of dangerous animals, not to mention the infamous Yanomami.

It was slow reading for me, but in a good way. The animals the author mentioned sound so interesting, I kept having to put down my book to google about the animals, such as hoatzins (they are birds with claws at the tip of their wings and ruminate like cows do), and the gorgeous gallitos de las rocas.

The book is entertaining and educational, although I felt the way the author got his friend to join him is a bit irresponsible. The writing is humorous without being over-the-top like some others are, and while the author doesn't explicitly talk about it, he has rich knowledge of wildness survival and natural science.

I am releasing this into the Around the World bookbox.

Caught in the return of the Around the World Bookbox, representing South America / Venezuela. Thanks!

I have to admit that the description sounds to me like it's playing up the "primitive nature" of the local people and bringing a very colonialist view. But I love nature, and particularly the Amazon, so I'll be very interested in that.

An interesting story with lots of adventure and wildlife but it moved rather slowly for me. He spends a lot of time whining about the conditions - the weather, the bugs, the diseases, etc. He also has a bit of a condescending attitude toward both his travel companions and the people he meets along the way. But I did love the descriptions of birds and other wildlife.

This will count as my final book for South America in this year's 666 Around the World Reading Challenge. I still have to read 3 books from Pacifica to complete the challenge. As there are only 11 days left in 2023, I may or may not make it. Stay tuned.
