Diver Magazine (Sept 16) "As expected from these talented photographers the images are outstanding and numerous, lending the book a coffee-table ambience. They showcase the captivating events detailed in the text, culminating in a pictorial tour of the 32 destinations. If you're like me, you'll dive right into the pages relating to destinations that you've already visited, bringing back the beautiful memories of your own adventures and experiences. Then it's on to the encounters that may have been on your wish-list for what seems like an eternity. For me it's leafy sea dragons that loom large, but I now know not only where to find them but what exposure protection to take and how to go about looking for these beautiful creatures of South Australia.

They select more than 30 of the best sites for underwater wildlife experiences and, as you'd expect, the photograpy is second to none. The duo are very conservation-driven too, so you can enjoy the dives in good conscience" Gerry Barnett, RPS Journal, August 2016.
