Return to the Wild: A Novel

By: James Hendry

Narrated by: James Hendry

'Following on from his bestselling novels A Year in the Wild and Back to the Bush, James Hendry returns to the setting of Sasekile Private Game Reserve for another tale that takes the reader behind the scenes with the MacNaughton brothers, Angus and Hugh. It is four and a half years since Angus’s last year in the wild when he was newly appointed to the position of head ranger at Sasekile. Much has happened in the interim.

In Return to the Wild there is high drama, much hilarity and close encounters with wildlife, fire and human incompetence as Angus unexpectedly returns to Sasekile to take on the training of a motley group of would-be game rangers with his usual stark but eloquent honesty. Alongside him, Hugh manages the lodge and its colourful staff with a varying degree of competence as events lurch from mishap to potential catastrophe.

Whether you are a fan of the MacNaughtons’ previous misadventures or a reader new to their story, Return to the Wild is a highly amusing, engaging and heartfelt read.

Great book as expected. Enjoyed every minute

Love the narrator James Henry
He pulls one onto the book and makes you fall in love with every one. The adventures one goes on made me laugh out loud

A Wild Read- LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!

Loved every second of it... hoping another adventure with Angus will follow. Such an enjoyable read and the magnificent James Hendry narrating it is priceless.

Wonderful!

This man's writing about my favorite subject of the African wild and all that goes alongside its wonder can make me laugh hilariously, listen with great interest and even sob with emotion from the weaving of the story so brilliantly one doesn't notice how much they are wrapped up as if they are present in the authors imagination. This should be made into a movie!

Perfect Outline of a Movie to Follow!!

I loved this book so much that I couldn't stop thinking about how great it would be if they made it into a movie. The details were so thorough that I created a perfect version of the characters in my mind and what they each would look and sound like. The voice impressions were a huge help. It is very well written and I didn't want it to end! I will be reading the others, as I did not know there were any others.

Another Gem from James Hendry

Love this 3rd novel written and narrated by Mr. Hendry. His humor makes me laugh out loud. The Safari adventures viewed from a guide’s pt of view were informative and, at times, sobering. Looking forward to re-reading the first two novels. And, of course, selfishly hoping for a fourth novel.
