pre-release blitz: chasing hornbills - up to my neck in africa by simon fenton

A few month's ago, I read an amazing adventure memoir by a Brit, Simon Fenton, titled Squirting Milk at Chameleons. At the time, I was fascinated enough by the title alone, to give this book a read and I was grateful I did.
The book detailed the life of Simon Fenton, a man who visited Senegal, fell in love with it and a Senegalese woman, Khady. Squirting Milk was a fun, light-hearted look at the difficulties of a Westerner living in and adapting to the African culture. It was a fantastic read and when Simon told me the second installment was coming out in a few weeks, I jumped at the chance to get an advanced copy, to read it and to participate in some small way to publicise it. 
Titled; Chasing Hornbills, this is an account of the next year or so, following on from where Squirting Milk left off. 

Having now read Chasing Hornbills, I can happily urge others to grab this book. It is due for release on October 29th and it really is a winner.  

Chasing Hornbills charts Simon Fenton's further adventures in Senegal. Now a father of two and juggling multiple businesses, he continues to face the everyday frustrations and exhilarations that made Squirting Milk at Chameleons such a compelling and entertaining read.

After seeing, but failing to chase a huge Hornbill, the locals warn Simon that he has missed the opportunity to earn good luck. With tropical illnesses, near-death experiences, voodoo madness, making him seriously question his own sanity, the Accidental African, must make a decision - will he settle permanently in his adopted home, or give up and return to his old familiar life.
