Book excerpt: The Luke Steel Chronicles follows a student's gap year in Tibet! There he meets fellow travellers all seeking spiritual enlightenment and self discovery as is he. But once seduced by copious amounts of Entheogens they soon abandon the tried and tested hippie route in search of adventure. Blazing a trail from Kathmandu to the jungles of the Golden Triangle where they accidently stumble across a secret society of tsunami surviving ex-backpackers for whom the very idea of returning to life in the matrix is not an option! Fed a diet of Opium and indoctrinated to their captor's lifestyle Luke realises very quickly he either stays forever or escapes! But with no compass and hundreds of miles from civilisation not to mention completely out of his mind on drugs, is an escape even an option?
