About the book

“This isn’t your everyday guide book to Australia. No – this book is different, this book will be mildly confusing, likely to mislead you and often take the piss like a true Aussie. This book will cover a lot of information that will prove much more useful than it ought to be.”

This book aims to thoroughly prepare you for the worst because after all everyone knows Australia is a dangerous place and when you lie dying on top of a mountain after been stung by a jellyfish you will thank the author for his wisdom and foresight.

However, this book will teach you more than just about how you’re going to die, it also aims to give you insight into Australian history and culture and provide you with a basic insight of the places worth avoiding while you are there and how to get between the few that are worth seeing.

This book will provide a useful travel companion for anyone who wants to have a fairly ordinary and confusing holiday in Australia, if that doesn’t sound like you maybe you should try the Lonely Planet Australia (Travel Guide). Keep in mind though it will quickly become out of date and costs a lot more!

Extra Downloadable stuff

In order to keep this book relevant and up-to-date each copy contains blank pages for you to insert extra content. The idea is you download it, print it out and stick it in and in doing so update your copy of the book. This extra content also known as DLC (Downloadable content) aims to expand and prolong the uselessness and irrelevance of the book and mean you don’t need to keep buying new editions.

Tasmania DLC

As you have probably worked out, Tasmania was regrettably left out of the original book. However, this will soon be remedied with the new Tasmania DLC.
