About this ebook

 This true story tells of one family’s hilarious journey through Australia’s rugged outback countryside. Our intrepid adventurers work their way through numerous mishaps, including, but not limited to, an ill-advised river crossing, an inappropriately packed roof rack and some truly horrible singing.

During their journey they stumble across a motley assortment of characters such as a confused check-in clerk, a grey nomad with an eye for detail regarding torches, and several Crazy Germans.

While reading Campervan Kama Sutra, you’ll not only fall in love with Australia’s vast, ever-changing countryside, but you’ll also delight in the tragicomedy that arrives with unerring regularity. You’ll laugh until something hurts. 

*P.S. There was no dog.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It has some genuine laugh-out-loud moments. The author comes across as what I imagine a typical Aussie is like - he certainly likes a beer, takes the mickey out of everyone, is not afraid of a little self deprecation, and obviously had a great time on this trip with his family. If you're wanting a light-hearted and heart-warming read, with some genuine dollops of humor then you'd enjoy Campervan Kama Sutra.

I bought this book after reading another of this author's science fiction books. This is obviously a true tale, but no less funny. It was a very entertaining travel-log of a 3 month trip through the Aussie outback. Reading it during a cold English winter made me very jealous. I want to go to the Kimberly! Very funny and engaging.

I bought this book after trying another of this author's works, which was very funny. This was even funnier. My wife banned me from reading it in bed because I kept laughing so much and waking her up. I’ve read plenty of Bill Bryson books in the past, and this loses only a little in comparison. No, I’m not exaggerating. It’s reasonable short, but entertainingly written, with local anecdotes and cultural references occasionally adding a bit of meat on the bones of the travel anecdotes. A perfect read for your commute.

About the author

 John Perrier was born in Brisbane, Australia in 1967. Perrier has published five books across a variety of genres and subjects.

His first book, published in 1999, was a self-help tome entitled 'Back Pain: How to get Rid of It Forever'. This book was an instant success in Australia, selling out its original print run. This book spawned an offshoot publication entitled 'Using Your Brain to Get Rid of Your Pain', which is a simple, commonsense guide on how to manage stress, reduce pain and think more healthily.

Perrier has also penned three novels. The first, in the historical fiction genre, is 'Captain Rum - A Wondrous Adventure''. It chronicles the fantastic tale of Fintan McAdam, who set sail solo from London in 1821.

The second novel is science fiction comedy for the young (and young at heart): 'A Few Quiet Beers with God'. Set in 2034, it follows the comedic mishaps of a young Australian named Dave who becomes entangled in a global power struggle. 

Perrier's third novel is a humorous travel biopic entitled 'Campervan Kama Sutra', a hilarious account of his family holiday across outback Australia with three kids. If you have half as much fun reading this as he had writing it then you are in for a treat! 

When he is not writing, Perrier likes to play basketball, cheer on his beloved Carlton Blues AFL side, potter in his herb garden, bush walk, play with his kids and listen to blues music. Occasionally he does two or three of these simultaneously.
