About the Author

The Raven Brothers were born in the United Kingdom. The first published work by the authors, Living the Linger, tells the story of lost love and a search for the truth during a road trip from Seattle to Los Angeles through backcountry USA. The publication of Driving the Trans- Siberian a year later, established the brothers as travel writers following a life-altering drive from the UK to Vladivostok in a rusty Ford Sierra. Noted by Lonely Planet for their talent to portray an “accurate view of what to expect”, Driving the Trans-Siberian spurred a life on the road. Carnival Express was the concluding title in the Linger Series trilogy, and follows two struggling writers on a quest to traverse the Trans-oceanic highway, from the Pacific to the Atlantic Coast of South America. A period of photojournalism, documenting new and off the beaten track destinations, tribal India, China’s Deep South and Crimea, led to the release of Black Sea Circuit. Seizing a narrow window of opportunity to cross the notorious Caucasus frontier, the book explores great legends from Jason and the Argonauts to a tribe of fierce female warriors known as the Amazons. Hike, Drive, Stayin’ Alive! the duo’s fifth book, is the first in a collection of ten candid stories of adventure by The Raven Brothers.
