The Extinction Club - Tapa blanda

'THE EXTINCTION CLUB is history, mystery, confession, hymn to a long-lost masculinity and adventure story - like Dava Sobel's Longitude with a black belt. As you would expect from the shining genius of the author of ANGRY WHITE PYJAMAS, the pages fly by like the kicks and punches of a Jet Li combination. Robert Twigger is a unique and dazzling talent - a nineteenth-century adventurer trapped in the body of a twenty-first century writer. I urge you to read everything that carries his name' - Tony Parsons

Robert Twigger is an author, adventure traveller and apprentice micromaster. His first book, Angry White Pyjamas, about a year spent in a Japanese martial arts dojo, won the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award and the Somerset Maugham Award. He has lectured on risk management, polymathics and leadership at Oxford Brookes Business School, Oxford University, the Royal College of Art, and to companies including P&G, Maersk shipping, Oracle computing and SAB Miller.
