Story of Heroes

8 October 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Courtney family saga full of danger, action, and intrigue. There are echoes of pirate tales and of Napoleonic naval books, of African adventure and of British Empire colonialism. There are aspects of religious conflict, of slave trading, of piracy and hunting of snares and rescues, of sea battles and duels. Essentially it should have something for every reader of action adventure. I especially enjoyed the descriptions of Zanzibar; with its colourful cauldron of humanity where the blood of Europeans, Bantu and Arabs mingle. The atmosphere
and aromas amongst a cacophony of shouting voices, just added so much colour and life. However the ending was a let down for me as
the heroine so uplifted in the story suddenly becomes incapable of defending herself?

Action Packed

As a reader who grew up on Wilbur, a re-read of this book was a surprise for me. Action packed & a plot that moved from the sea to land as our hero found, lost, found, lost & found his love. So all the adventure remained but as an older reader the underlining story-line was weak by todays standard. However, a Wilbur Smith book is always worth a read.

Another 'Golden' Classic.

Another classic Wilbur Smith that is virtually impossible to put down. I have read and enjoyed all of Wilbur's books and as a sideline his 'River God' started my fascination with ancient Egypt. Keep the books coming Wilbur, I have a lot of reading time still available.....

A great story line that builds up, is real and keeps you engaged. Historical novel based on great research, including romance in a war like setting!

Not his best. O.k. Though I was looking for something more like the earlier Courtney books. He has started using sleaze to try and keep our interest. Lost mine.
