Getting Stoned with Savages: A Trip through the Islands of Fiji and Vanuatu Audiobook

" My son recommended this and I have to say I enjoyed it, it was well written and funny and perceptive! "

" Not as good as the other two, but still liked it. "

" This was an enjoyable read. While it wasn't done in a scholarly fashion, I still learned a lot about Vanuatu and Fiji. Someone loaned me another one of his books, The Sex Lives of Cannibals. I look forward to reading that too. "

" I didn't think this book was as funny as Troost's first book, so I felt a let down. However, I did enjoy reading about the south pacific islands and what life is like there. "

" A part time writer hangs out in Vanuatu and Fiji while his wife works full time. Certianly a flavor of the islands, a slice of life from a dedicated slacker. One of those writers that make you confidant that given an even playing field you could have his job. "

" The 2nd in the series...super funny and interesting! "

" I read this one because I read the first one - "The Sex Lives of Cannibals." I am not sure which book I like more, but for a non-fiction read, either of them will take you to a different place. All I know is that I have got to try some authentic Kava. "

" Listened to the CD version. Loved it! Hilarious and informative. Great narrator too. "

" A humorous and fun look at the author's journey through Fiji and Vanuatu. "

" I like how Troost combines silliness with the cultural, political, and ecological history of Fiji and environs. He's a keen observer and a clever storyteller. Funny; not hilarious. "

" A light travel read. made me want to head off to Fiji to see for myself. "

" Great writer, from a familiar perspective. "
