Jaspa’s Journey is an ongoing series of travel adventure novels for the young and young at heart.
They’re especially suitable for strong middle grade readers looking for a bit of a challenge, without having to venture into subject areas they (and their parents) may find uncomfortable.
Firmly set in the real world, the stories that make up Jaspa’s Journey blend fact and fiction (a bit like Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code). So while Jaspa and his friends may be the work of Rich’s imagination, almost everything else is real. In fact, anyone lucky enough to visit the places featured in the books, could following in Jaspa’s footsteps, and see everything he does for themselves. As a former environmental research scientist, this is something especially important to Rich.
To date, Jaspa and his friends have struggled along with the annual wildebeest migration on the Serengeti Plains where he was born in The Great Migration.
They’ve undertaken a quest to join a (not so) secret Ses society in The Pride of London.
They’ve geocached on the battlefield where Wellington defeated Napoleon in Jaspa’s Waterloo.
They've battled the wilds of Alaska in search of a cure for a deadly disease in The Hermit of Kennecott.
Most recently, they’ve hunted Italian canals, alleyways, islands and lagoons in search of the Vanished in The Prisoner of Venice.
And still, the Journey is only just beginning! See for yourself...
