Loved it!
As someone who loves a travel adventure (although not quite as extreme as many in this book), my travel has been curtailed by Covid. This book gave me all of those travel adventure vibes I had been missing. Loved it

An adventure encyclopedia .5 stars😉
If you love adventure as much as I do, this book is for you. it's absolutely crammed with every possible adventure a human being can have, with handy pieces of advice along the way.the only piece of melancholy is that it's very unlikely I'll accomplish many of them. still loved it.

Interesting adventures
This book was very interesting, but I felt it was a bit too clinical with the detail and needed more depth to the individual stories talked about. Overall I would recommend it to adventurous people. The story telling I feel should have been done by a professional reader, Ed’s story telling was a bit too monotone for me and needed a bit more va va voom to prick up the senses. But I really enjoy your tv docs Ed.

Interesting - could have gone deeper into the challenges though
I did enjoy everything in this book, but like other reviewers, I wanted it to go a bit deeper. I’d have enjoyed specific stories of people who have attempted these adventures and either succeeded or failed - for example there are so many interesting stories about people who have died on Everest or K2, it seemed lazy not to include some. Also, almost every challenge was rated 5 stars “people will write books about you”. This seemed a bit of an exaggeration for the challenges which he then went on to say could be arranged with a tour guide, eg going on a safari or a diving trip. Aside from this, I did enjoy the book and found it inspirational, and more accessible than I was expecting. I just wanted a bit more!

Reads like a travel brochure
A mix of articles on various themes. I found it a particularly odd writing style.

Good adventure examples
Good intro to some adventures with accurate brief summaries, would recommend having a copy for some specific guidance / reference. Little robotic at times

Good listen. Good for more extreme adventurers.
I always enjoy watching Ed Stafford thought I would give this a try some interesting stuff.
Maybe a bit extreme for weekend adventures but gives ideas and is informative.
