Book

The Burning Shore (2007)

The beginning of a new Courtney saga, following on from the WHEN THE LION FEEDS trilogy. I found THE BURNING SHORE a bit of a slog to read, perhaps because Smith's previous novel, THE LEOPARD HUNTS IN DARKNESS, was an absolutely triumphant book and one of my favourite reads of all time; this one ...

Assegai (2009)

Michener meets Clancy - or something. Lengthy historical epic with some espionage thrown in. An interesting look at gory safaris and the brutal killing of animals, attacks by hostile tribes, and the beginning of WWII. My first Wilbur Smith book in many years, and not a favorite at all. Too w...
