"Masterful storytelling"- David Farley, An Irreverent Curiosity"Informative, funny, daring, and touching prose"- Mike & Anne Howard, Ultimate Journeys for Two"A true and honest accounting of what it means to be a traveler"- Nomadic Matt, Ten Years a Nomad "I loved diving into the travel adventures I haven't got around to writing (yet), and several I haven't been on (yet)!- Luke Richardson, KathmanduThe Dogs of 'Nam is a collection of short stories from over a decade of world travel. Part clueless comedy, part poetic observation, The Dogs of Nam is a meditation on what it means to be a traveller. Follow along as Chris fumbles his way through life as a budget backpacker, illuminating the lessons he has learned along the way. This is no glamorous tale of #wanderlust, but a true and honest accounting of what it means to be a traveller - to connect, to explore, to let go. With tales of being stalked by a jaguar in Costa Rica to living at a Buddhist monastery in Japan, The Dogs of Nam will, at worst, entertain you, and at best, it will prod you into an adventure of your own.

AFTER 20 YEARS OF PEACE, COLLAPSE IS ON THE HORIZON. WILL THE NAMELESS SON OF MAGNUS AND MARIAM SURVIVE THE DESTRUCTION?OR WILL HE BE JUST ANOTHER VICTIM OF THE BRUTAL LESS YEAR?Magnus and Mariam never named their son. Why name a thing that may not live to earn it? Tucked away on the broiling edge of failed civilization, their reclusive child is left to fumble his way through a dangerous and cruel world that is only going to get crueler. Because a Less Year is coming. For the first time in twenty years, no trade along the world's last road is to be permitted. No trees are to be felled, no stones quarried. For an entire year, every village and town must isolate. So the land can heal. So the population can dwindle. As resources wither and betrayal looms, the nameless Boy must embrace his parents' secret survivalist ways lest he succumb to a world set on destroying itself. Because less is coming. It's coming for everyone.WHAT READERS ARE SAYING: ★★★★★ "The Roads meets (a way better) Hunger Games" ★★★★★ "Cruel, violent, clever edge-of-your-seat reading." ★★★★★ "Oldfield's unique style and thoughtful prose make The Less Year impossible to put down" ★★★★★ "Exciting, dark and gritty."
