"A Hungarian aristocrat, Apponyi died just before publication of this book. His trip to India in 1930 included a driven tiger shoot near Hyderabad, shooting blackbucks from a car with the Maharajah of Bikaner (hardly sporting!) and more tiger hunting in the Terai. His best chapters, however, describe his climbs and hunts in the Khyber highlands where trophy ibex, markhor, and urial were collected. On the frontiers of Tibet, he bagged Ovis ammon, burhel and Tibetan antelope. Some exceptionally good photos complement the text"

"Henrik started a diplomatic career, in Berlin (1912–1913) and Istanbul (1913–1914), but that was cut short by World War I and the end of the Habsburg monarchy. He relocated to Oponice in 1918 and dedicated his life to adventurous traveling, particularly in Sudan (1924) and India and Tibet (1930). His travel notes were published in London in 1937 under the title My big-game hunting diary from India and the Himalayas, with a foreword by the Viscount Halifax whom Henrik had met while in India. The book came out after the deaths of both his mother Marguerite, who had promoted the publication project, and that of Henrik himself. He died in Berlin in unclear circumstances.

An Escape Room in a Book.
Format: Kindle
The literal definition of a page turner. Extremely difficult to put down. The story is like an escape room, a mystery, and a romance, all wrapped into one book. 📚

The fun continues!
Format: Hardcover
Escape rooms all around! Avery and three Hawthorne brothers, Nash, Jameson and Xander, create a game together with seven players. The winner gets a million dollars. The players are forced into teams as they are locked into different escape rooms, securing teammates. Gigi, Knox and Brady become a team; Savannah and Rohan are a team; Grayson, Lyra and Odette are a team. They must work together to escape their rooms and make it to the dock by dawn the next morning. Avery and the Hawthornes know how to figure out riddles and they know how to create difficult ones. Who will make it to the dock first? Likes/dislikes: I thoroughly enjoyed the riddles that the contestants had to solve. The mysterious watcher creates suspense and an added tension! Wonderful character development. Language: R for 47 swears, no f-words. Mature content: PG for gentle kissing. Violence: PG-13 for bloody death. Ethnicity: Rohan has light brown skin. Knox is white. Brady has ebony skin. Lyra has golden tan skin.
