Series 1 relives the feel-good exploits of a young-at-heart retiree who walked Wainwright's 191 mile Coast-to-Coats Path through Northern England's breath-taking countryside. Series 2 recounts the early life of an eager traveller who was fatefully cast ashore in the 'lucky country', Australia. Series 3 remains a mystery, so let's wait and see, shall we?

This novel confronts the ordeals encountered by Magnus McAulay who shipped out from the Isle of Man in search of adventure. Before his 19th birthday, the youth of mixed Celtic and Viking blood had endured electrifying escapades whilst sailing the seven seas. More worldwide exploits enlivened Magnus’s journeys with some chilling encounters until he was cast ashore in Australia, where he wholeheartedly embraced the New World’s "av-a-go-yer-mug" lifestyle.

Before his 19th birthday, the youth of mixed Celtic and Viking blood, had endured electrifying escapades whilst sailing the seven seas. More worldwide exploits enlivened Magnus’s journeys with some chilling encounters until he was cast ashore in Australia where he wholeheartedly embraced the New World’s "av-a-go-yer-mug" lifestyle. A brief encounter with the secretive and unregulated world of fine arts and the unexpected arrival in the Beyond, where everything is new, transcendental, and inexplicably, propelled Magnus into an eternal state of expecting the unexpected.

The book is an account of the day to day exploits of an expatriate Manxman and an Australian chum who seek to shake off the retirement blues by walking Alfred Wainwright’s Coast to Coast path. It took 18 days to walk the 191 miles from the priory village of St Bees on the Irish Sea to arrive at the former smuggler’s stronghold of Robin Hood’s Bay on the Yorkshire coast. The trail passes through some of England’s most rugged and sublime countryside.

What if what you believe in is wrong? What if your beliefs are a myth no more valid than Greek and Roman mythology? What if the ancient philosophers, such as Plato and Aristotle, got it wrong? Can’t be. Not after all these millennia. And who says they got it wrong, anyway? Kyle Ignatius Llano, The Savant, the barrio dumpster baby, and the Sisyphean toiler, says they got it all wrong. Kyle’s brilliant manuscript, Cogitatio Universum, challenges centuries-old ideas underpinning the core of contemporary Western thought.
