編輯推薦:This production, a prequel to A TIME TO DIE, artfully blends the wonderful words of Wilbur Smith with the expressive voice of Steven Crossley. Smith paints word pictures of a land and people in turmoil during the Boer War while Crossley vividly draws listeners into the brutality of battle and the joy of personal success. His skillful narration covers all of the bases: tempo, pace, diction, intonation, dialect, gender. What's more, his style conveys the depth of feeling that Smith attaches to each person, each scene. Alas, like many books that are part of a series, this sweeping story of the Courteney brothers, Sean and Garrick, comes to an abrupt end, probably in preparation for the sequel. Nonetheless, it's a perfect fit between writer and reader.
內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介:Only once in his life had Sean met a man whose strength matched his own - and now, again, they were pitted against each other ...Sean Courtney, impulsive adventurer of "When the Lion Feeds" returns from the wildnerness a rich man - until he is robbed by the Boers of his wagons, his gold and the girl he loves. A grim homecoming finds his country in the cruel grip of war. But in the bloody days ahead, conflicts within his family will prove far more bitter than any fought on the veld...'The world's leading adventure writer' - "Daily Express". 'The pace would do credit to a Porsche, and the invention is as bright and explosive as a fireworks display' - "Sunday Telegraph". ' ...action follows action ...mystery is piled on mystery ...tales to delight the millions of addicts of the gutsy adventure story' - "Sunday Express". ' ...a natural storyteller who moves confidently and often splendidly in his period and sustains a flow of convincing incident' - "The Scotsman".
