Meteorites reveal a story much bigger than ourselves or our planet. As Tim says, 'It is an epic beyond compare.'

Armed with determination, glued-together bikes, and legs that are often less willing than his imagination, Moore embarks on unforgettable adventures through France and Italy, discovering the landscapes, history, and eccentric characters that have made the Tour de France and the Giro d'Italia sporting icons. Tim Moore sets off to recreate the most appalling bike race of all time.

Some secrets are buried too deep for tears. Love, death and an ancient murder combine in this outstanding psychological thriller. When barrister Sarah Newby embarks on her first case in London’s Court of Criminal Appeal, at first it seems her career is looking up. But she has little idea of the horror she is about to uncover. With her marriage on the rocks, and to the despair of her former admirer Detective Inspector Terry Bateson, Sarah embarks on an affair with a handsome property developer, Michael Parker. But then a body is discovered in one of Michael's cottages. Suicide, or murder?

Tim Moore sets off to recreate the most appalling bike race of all time. The notorious 1914 Giro d'Italia was an ordeal of 400-kilometre stages, cataclysmic night storms and relentless sabotage - all on a diet of raw eggs and red wine. Of the 81 who rolled out of Milan, only eight made it back. From the Alps to the Adriatic the pair relive the bike race in all its misery and glory, on an adventure that is by turns bold, beautiful and recklessly incompetent.

A book that tells the story of London since the thirties through the 28 streets, stations and utilities of the Monopoly board. In Do Not Pass Go Tim Moore fearlessly tackles the real thing and along the way tells the story of a game and the city that frames it. The stirring travelogue of one man's erratic progress around those 28 streets, stations and utilities, Do Not Pass Go is also an epic and lovingly researched history of London's wayward progress in the 66 years since the launch of the world's most popular board game.

Ludicrous, heart-warming and improbably inspirational, Spanish Steps is the story of what happens when a rather silly man tries to walk all the way across a very large country, with a very large animal who doesn't really want to. Being larger than a cat, the donkey is the kind of animal Tim Moore is slightly scared of. Yet intrigued by epic accounts of a pilgrimage undertaken by one in three medieval Europeans, and committed to historical authenticity, he finds himself leading a Pyrenean ass named Shinto into Spain, headed for Santiago de Compostela.

Would you cheer if they sent you to Coventry? Could you stick up for Stoke or big-up Bracknell? Can you handle the thrill of Rhyl, the heaven of Hull or the mirth of Tydfil? In You are Awful, But I Love You, Tim Moore drives his Austin Maestro round all the places on our beloved island that...
