Book Description
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING TRAVEL MEMOIR What happens when an unadventurous adventure writer tries to re-create the original expedition to Machu Picchu? In 1911, Hiram Bingham III climbed into the Andes Mountains of Peru and “discovered” Machu Picchu. While history has recast Bingham as a villain who stole both priceless artifacts and credit for finding the great archeological site, Mark Adams set out to retrace the explorer’s perilous path in search of the truth—except he’d written about adventure far more than he’d actually lived it. In fact, he’d never even slept in a tent. Turn Right at Machu Picchu is Adams’ fascinating and funny account of his journey through some of the world’s most majestic, historic, and remote landscapes guided only by a hard-as-nails Australian survivalist and one nagging question: Just what was Machu Picchu?

Book Description
What They're Saying "humor and adventure like Guardians of the Galaxy" -- Goodreads reader "like Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" -- Anina Net, 360Fashion Network "amazingly fun and heartwarming" -- Amazon reader "damned near perfect" -- Amazon reader "a world that's easy to get immersed in" -- Amazon reader "reminds of Star Wars" -- Advance reader "a joy of a novel to read" -- Advance reader The year is 2399. Humans' "biological clocks" have been stopped for more than 250 years, freeing humanity from aging and death. AIs have rights, and can even acquire full citizenship. It's also fashion week. Antisocial fashion editor Pablo Starr -- who runs Space Fashion Week, via RNWY -- is bored and depressed, as usual. He has endless riches, and (like everyone in 2399) doesn't age, but he's been searching for his lost love for almost 100 years. Meanwhile, supermodel-turned-reality star Samantha (of mean-spirited holo show Samantha!) is trying to make a name for herself as an inventor, but she's mocked by the media and her shallow co-workers. Their lives are connected, and changed, when DOS, an antiquated robot, crashes the Chanel show looking for Samantha. DOS has a wild story: his owner has been abducted by a Sention sim (a lifelike android made by Fashion Robotics), and Pablo will be next. Welcome to Book 1 of RNWY Universe. See a full history, technological specs, and take the "AI Citizenship Test" at RNWYUniverse.com. FROM THE AUTHOR "As with the Marvel movies, my books are very much explorations of character. But my characters aren't 'chosen ones.' They're ordinary people who do extraordinary things using compassion, wit, humor, and kindness: even when their choices are difficult. RNWY: Book 1 is also about some of the ways technology will challenge some our basic assumptions about life: and how we can rise to the occasion with expanded notions of family and love. The next step for the book is as a graphic novel series and motion picture. You can follow RNWY Universe as it develops on Instagram @RNWYUniverse and at www.RNWYUniverse.com."
