Places
Ian Brodie is best-known for his guides to the Lord of the Rings and Narnia locations.
In Ian Brodie's New Zealand, the author and photographer takes the reader on a visual journey around some of his favourite places.
Like his movie guides, this is packed with chatty, informative text, and beautiful photos, ranging from the most remote spots imaginable to bustling town centres.
Ian Brodie is very obviously proud to be a Kiwi, and his love and regard shines through in both photos and text.
Fantastic book.
