### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read for avid readers who enjoy an adventure, great writing most of all, and a colorful knowledge of what Africa was!
*by D***S on September 8, 2015*

yes, this author has a fabulous command to the English language! I have read this story about 3 times, just for the words...! the story is spell binding and when we traveled to Africa it helped give me such a wonderful insight and appreciation for the country and its people. the music is awesome....and if interested, the movie "Power of One" is so similar to 'coloring' Africa for me....well, I just fell in love.Many years later a friend now recently has purchased a Rhodian Ridgeback dog...and this is why I purchased these stories for him....to read to see how smart and wonderful his dog is!!! and what a magnificent animal this breed truly is !one must read the first book in this series...A Story Like The Wind...before this book!!!!!ENJOY~!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A worthy sequel
*by A***S on December 16, 2015*

The sequel to A Story Like The Wind. I read this as a teen and loved it as an adventure story. Reading it as an adult there are many nuances that I missed especially knowing that a friend's parents wee murdered in Zimbabwe I now find it a far more disturbing story but infinitely worth reading. It is a pity it is no longer in print. A candidate for kindle?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ All school children should read these books!!
*by L***E on April 14, 2016*

Laurens van der Post is one of my favorite writers. Through his storytelling he stirs the spirit of the African bush that is imprinted in all of us and awakens the memory of forgotten a soulful and simple world. Van der Post brings this side our our world and inner selves back to life and "A Story Like the Wind" and the sequel "A Far off Place", again do not disappoint. Through Francois, his dog Hinza, and Bushman Xhabbo and Noonie he takes us not only on an epic journey and adventure through Africas heart, but on the journey of a boy growing up in the world and the contrasting soulful, simple life of the BushmanA Far Off Place (Harvest/Hbj Book)
