title: The Linger Longer: Driving the Trans-Siberian - the Ultimate Road Trip Across Russia (Volume 2)
author: Chris Raven
description: Simon Raven and Chris Raven were born in the United Kingdom. A career in overland adventure travel was launched when they drove across Siberia from the UK to Vladivostok at the dawn of a new millennium. Driving the Trans-Siberian is an account of their journey and is the second book in the Ravens on the Road travel trilogy published by Samosir Books. The brothers have since driven full circle around the Black Sea, traversed the Trans-oceanic highway from the Pacific to the Atlantic coast of South America and in 2007 travelled the road to Damascus. In addition to co-writing four travel books, they have documented and photographed multiple off the beaten track destinations across the globe including Chinas deep south, tribal India and the Balkan peninsula. Simon and Chris have been noted by Lonely Planet for their talent to portray an accurate view of what to expect.

  Budapest: January 1945. The Russians have finally fought their way in, driving
  out the Germans. Five people come together for a brief nightmare period that
  is to mark each of them for the rest of their lives. Two girls, one who would
  only hate, one who would have to love. Two Intelligence Officers; one Russian,
  one British, each already actively engaged in the politics of the post-war
  world; the time of the Cold War.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  And Alexander Galitsin, the eighteen-year-old Russian soldier, born of a
  Scottish mother and a Ukrainian father, already destined to be caught astride
  the gulf that would divide the world.
