Lonely Planet: The world's leading travel guide publisher*

Greedy Lords, dubious heroes, wicked relations and innocents in peril - today's world sounds like a grim fairytale!

Travelling along the infamous 'Axis of Evil' led to Tony Wheeler's Bad Lands - now he's going deeper into the world's darkest corners to explore a rogue's gallery of troubled nations.

Every country has its problems, but some problems seem so vexed, so intractable, so absurd, you can only shake your head. Tony Wheeler trains his well-travelled eyes on some of these places and attempts to understand how things got so messed up. Along the way he gets stoned (with the thrown variety) in Palestine, scores a speeding ticket in Zimbabwe, gets arrested for photographing a bar in the Congo, and visits Osama bin Laden's Abbottabad in Pakistan. Join Tony and find out if there's a happily-ever-after in these tales from the dark side.

孤独星球：世界领先的旅游指南出版商*。

贪婪的领主、可疑的英雄、邪恶的关系和处于危险中的无辜者--今天的世界听起来就像一个严峻的童话故事！沿着臭名昭著的 "邪恶轴心 "旅行，托尼-惠勒开始了他的 "坏土地 "之旅--现在他要深入到世界的各个角落。

沿着臭名昭著的 "邪恶轴心 "旅行，促成了托尼-惠勒的《坏境》--现在他要深入到世界最黑暗的角落，去探索那些麻烦国家的流氓画廊。

每个国家都有它的问题，但有些问题似乎如此令人烦恼，如此难以解决，如此荒谬，你只能摇摇头。托尼-惠勒将他那双游刃有余的眼睛放在其中一些地方，试图了解事情是如何变得如此混乱的。一路上，他在巴勒斯坦被扔了石头（被扔的品种），在津巴布韦被开了一张超速罚单，在刚果因拍摄酒吧而被捕，并访问了巴基斯坦的乌萨马-本-拉登的阿伯塔巴德。加入托尼的行列，看看在这些来自黑暗面的故事中是否有永远幸福的结局。
