The Adventures of Ali Thunda is a historical novel inspired by the life of a Jamaican Rastafari Mr. Noel Dyer who hitch-hiked from England to Ethiopia in 1964. The Author met him in Addis Ababa in 1968. Ali Thunda described himself as 'a symbol of the Rastafarian Faith'. He was illiterate. Illiteracy does not mean lack of intelligence, as the Author can attest, because illiterates compensate by expanding their imagination and their retentive skills. Ali Tunda's journey reflects the experiences of the Jamaican working class in mid-20th Century and opens up room for debate on the impact of faith, race and education on the individual within the social structures of the time. The book captures the restlessness and the search for identity of poor Jamaicans in the early 1960's and their sense of connectedness to Africa as expressed through the Rastafarian movement. The Adventures of Ali Thunda traces Ali Thunda's journey from Jamaica to Ethiopia via England, France, Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt and Sudan. "It is a fascinating story of extraordinary heroism in the face of unbelievable suffering. It celebrates the genius of the Rastafari and the Jamaican spirit." The Author's style is designed to use language to establish situations in which the hero finds himself as well as to highlight his thought process by incorporating his personal musings naturally within the dialogue. The dialogue therefore emphasizes character development and plot motivation so that each successive adventure keeps the reader wanting to see what comes next.

The Adventures of Ali Thunda (Books 1-5) is a work of historical fiction based on the life of Mr. Noel Dyer, a Jamaican Rastafari personally known to the Author, whose quest for his promised land, the ancient biblical land of Ethiopia provided the inspiration for The Adventures of Ali Thunda, Books 1-5. The Author has created the story with a certain flavour of authenticity by quoting Ali Thunda personally in italics throughout the book. The Adventures of Ali Thunda (Books 1-5) has opened a small window through which the reader may view and contemplate the social environment of the 1960’s in Jamaica - which gave rise to an important character as Ali Thunda who described himself as a symbol of the Rastafarian Faith. Although Ali Thunda was illiterate, he did not lack intelligence, imagination and highly retentive skills. He stored information very efficiently in his memory instead of writing them down on a note pad as literate people often do. The names used in the narrative are all fictional and any similarity to specific individuals is purely coincidental. The story is neither a biography of Ali Thunda nor an analysis of the Rastafarian beliefs and practices.
