Fantastic !

I’ve read many of his books. This is certainly one of my favorites. I only regret that it had to end.

Just Listen!

Wilbur Smith, perhaps from the grave and Tom Harper, his associate have done an excellent job on this book. just read it. you will love it.

Great!

Loved it as always!! Wilbur Smith is one of the best. Love how he describes the African continent.

The Courtney series are my favorite W Smith books.

I'm looking for a sequel. The ending was unsatisfactory. I couldn't put this book down!

Great storyline

Really enjoyed every moment. Great story. Storytelling was clear and never boring. Well done everyone who made this a great listening experience.
