I rarely leave reviews but this book was so much fun. Fast paced, strong characters, and an interesting premise. The narration was a standout. Do yourself a favor and read this book.

I thought this would be just another police procedural when I started reading. But it was so much more. The story was a fun read and the narration excellent.

I found the book very confusing at times. There are so many characters and jumping between decades that a couple of times I thought about not finishing it. But I’m glad I did. I think it would be better read as an actual book.

The story was rather difficult to make sense of in the beginning. However, it hooked me and I found it especially historically interesting, especially since I had lived in the Far East in the last century.

The narrator made both the black and white main characters sound identical. This made it very confusing at times. The black character’s accent was good, the white one’s not so much.

The first several chapters were very confusing and I almost returned the book. Glad I didn’t as it got better and the confusing early chapters were eventually explained

Everything about this book is outstanding. The writing and narration took me back to Africa, and I strongly recommend it to anyone interested in Africa, it’s wildlife, the Zulu people or conservation.

Mark Bramhall’s narration elevates a wonderful story to a new level. Makes me want to listen to other books he has done.

The story was all right, even educational, but the narrator’s wispy voice (the same for almost all the characters) quickly became annoying.
