Book Review: Playing with Fire – Adventures in Indonesia

There are literally hundreds of books on the market about people’s travels around the archipelago of Indonesia. Some are good and some even better than the norm. I was told about a book – Playing with Fire: Adventures in Indonesia – written by Nick Langston-Able which promised to be a good read. And, it was.

Playing with Fire: Adventures in Indonesia is the true story of a backpacking journey through some of the most beautiful islands in the archipelago including Java, Bali, Lombok, Borneo, Flores and Rinca. As his website explains:

It takes place during a time of dangerous political and economic upheaval as the author decides to pick up his backpack and take a journey to find ancient temples, massive volcanoes and himself. It is a story for anyone who has experienced the joys, frustrations, challenges and excitement of backpacking; and for anyone who ever dreamt of taking the road less travelled by.
