The Hero of Negropont: Greeks, Turks, Tourists... and a Camel

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. To escape debt and summonses, Lord Exford is sent abroad in 1788 with Winstanley, a prudish clergyman, and Higgins, a truculent artist. Shipwrecked on the island of Negropont—modern Euboea—then ruled by a Turkish pasha, they encounter Amelia, a botanist, feminist, and intrepid explorer, and her camel, Rousseau. Amid pirates, renegades, minstrels, djinn, and star-crossed lovers, the travellers are drawn into a world of political intrigue, forbidden desire, and cultural collision. Befuddled by love, hashish, and his classical education, Winstanley finds himself confronting the might of the Sultan, while it falls to the wily Lord Exford to rescue his eccentric companions from an unspeakable fate.
