Reviewer: Dan_H - 4/2/2007 19:07 Subject: Very Fun! This was a very entertaining story and the reader did an excellent job! If you like death defying adventure tales you should love this one. One of the things that I love about Haggard's book is the introduction and use of native African language.
Reviewer: FNH - 3/13/2009 12:36 Subject: Free Audio Review This is an adventure tail in the classic form. It is exciting and full of action, from fending off wild animals right through to terrible battles. The characters are well developed and you get to feel for them as they go through their various struggles. What struggles they are! Perhaps the story takes a little while to get going, but it's not long and it's worth the wait because you will find yourself drawn into the book scene by scene. Well worth a listen, and very well read. If you want to read more of my reviews of free audio found on the web visit http://FreeAudioReview.blogspot.com
