“In the end, these people helped me realize that Boundless was more than a job; it was metaphor for life. It came down to one simple, daily decision—do I stand still or move forward?” Filming the hit television series Boundless, Simon Donato has raced thousands human-powered kilometres across the globe—from the frigid tundra of Iceland to the searing heat of the Sahara, journeys that strip away the regular trappings of life and pit us against ourselves and the natural world. There are no modern conveniences to lean on as crutches, and every metre gained is earned through both physical and mental effort. In his compelling first book, Donato details the quest for adventure and the opportunities to test ourselves in a very primal way—in ways that we aren’t able to in our lives very much anymore. Describing the key moments and adventures that put him on the path to Boundless, Simon takes you on an adventure-filled journey around the globe and shows how you can apply his lessons and experience to your everyday life.

In the quaint town of Ravensbrook, a malevolent force awakens within the walls of an ancient mansion, threatening to engulf the town in darkness. Amidst the eerie silence that settles over Ravensbrook, four enigmatic figures appear, known only as the Harbingers of Light. Each harbinger possesses unique abilities—a wielder of wisdom, a bearer of courage, a guardian of unity, and a bearer of compassion. Drawn together by a shared purpose, the Harbingers' journey begins as they venture into the foreboding Blackwood Manor, seeking to unravel the sinister mysteries hidden within its walls. As the haunting presence within the mansion intensifies, the Harbingers find themselves confronted by an ethereal entity—the Eternal Watcher. Beneath the enigmatic gaze of this being, they discover a deeper truth—that their quest is not merely about defeating malevolence, but about embracing the power of compassion and unity to vanquish darkness from within. As the Harbingers navigate the treacherous twists of fate and confront their own inner demons, they forge an unbreakable bond with the town of Ravensbrook. The once fearful and skeptical townsfolk soon find solace and hope in the presence of these enigmatic figures. And so, Ravensbrook becomes a sanctuary—a place where compassion and unity thrive, shining a beacon of hope in a world grappling with darkness. But the malevolence they face is not easily subdued. As the Harbingers' journey unfolds, they encounter sinister rituals, vengeful spirits, and the ghostly remnants of a tragic past. As they delve deeper into the ethereal realm and face the Eternal Watcher, they come to understand that their actions have far-reaching consequences—consequences that extend beyond the physical realm. Through trials that test their resolve, the Harbingers learn the true nature of their legacy. It is not a quest that can be measured in victories or losses, but in the hearts they touch and the spirits they inspire. As their journey progresses, more than just the fate of Ravensbrook hangs in the balance—it is the balance between light and darkness, compassion and malevolence, that will determine the future of both realms. In a world where darkness and despair threaten to consume all, the Harbingers of Light rise to confront the malevolence that seeks to shroud the realm in eternal gloom. With compassion in their hearts, unity in their purpose, wisdom guiding their actions, and courage in their every step, they stand as beacons of hope in a world gripped by fear. Join the Harbingers of Light on their timeless quest as they navigate the ethereal realm, challenge malevolence's malevolent forces, and uncover the secrets of Blackwood Manor. Their journey will remind us all of the enduring power of compassion and unity, and how these virtues can vanquish even the most formidable darkness.
