Synopsis

**THE AMAZON #1 MEMOIR, #1 HUMOR AND #1 TRAVEL BESTSELLERS**

Join Tony as he takes up volunteering in an exotic animal refuge... in Ecuador! Where escaping bears, mischievous monkeys and a sack full of live tarantulas are the least of his problems.

Thailand promises to be a more relaxing adventure – until the water buffalo gets involved! Paradise has never seen this much trouble...

And then it's time for an epic road trip all around Australia. In a van called ‘Rusty', because... well, I'm sure you can guess!

Over a thousand pages in total, with over 1,900 5-star reviews between them, these uplifting tales are guaranteed to keep you chuckling into the early hours.

This box set contains the following three books:

'That Bear Ate My Pants!'

The incredible TRUE story of one man's struggle to survive in an Ecuadorian animal refuge.

There comes a time in every man's life when he says to himself, "Holy crap! I'm about to be eaten by a bear!"

Tony James Slater went to Ecuador, determined to become a man.
It never occurred to him that 'or die trying' might be an option...

The trouble with volunteering in a South American animal refuge is that everything wants a piece of you. And the trouble with being Tony, is that most of them got one.

Just how do you 'look after' something that's trying it's damnedest to kill you and eat you?

If only he'd had some relevant experience. Other than owning a pet rabbit when he was nine. And if only he'd bought some travel insurance...

'Don't Need The Whole Dog!'

Watch out paradise! Trouble's coming...

Bitten by the sprit of adventure – amongst many other things – Tony set his sights on Thailand, vowing to start a new life in paradise.

To get there, he'll try anything – from volunteering, to delivering yachts, to reality TV...
...and selling his body to medical science?!

One thing's for sure – when a man like this goes in search of adventure, it's bound to end in tears.

So batten down the hatches! Lock up your power tools! And for gawd's sake turn the electricity off.
Because that crazy Englishman is back.
And this time, he's brought the whole family...

‘Kamikaze Kangaroos!'

Tony James Slater knew nothing about Australia.
Except for the fact that he'd just arrived there.
The stage is set for an outrageous adventure: three people, one van, on an epic, 20,000 mile road trip around Australia.
What could possibly go wrong?

Of course, the van – nicknamed ‘Rusty' – is a crumbling wreck, held together by the world's most garish paint job.
They're criss-crossing the continent through some of the most inhospitable land on the planet – the infamous Aussie Outback.
And isn't there something about Australian animals being... well, you know, kind of dangerous?

Unprepared, under-qualified and hopelessly inept, Tony battles gigantic pumpkins, mechanical mishaps and suicidal kangaroos, armed only with a thong and a sense of humour. One thing's for sure; this ‘adventure of a lifetime' – if they survive it – is something they're never going to forget.

So, scull those stubbies!
Grab your galahs!
And put down that platypus. 
LOOK OUT, AUSTRALIA!
There's an idiot coming...

Three incredible TRUE stories, together for the first time. Check them out now!
