Men of Men

Summary: A struggle to get through...
Review: I read Birds of Prey -- my first book by this author and loved every minute of it. Consequently, I was very happy to find Men of Men in the library. Unfortunately, my happiness was short-lived. I found it a struggle to get through most of this book, so I finally quit at just over half way through it. I found it rather boring. I gave it two stars because every now and then something would happen that I found interesting, but for the most part, the book was not what I expected. However, because of how much I liked Birds of Prey, I haven't given up on the author yet. I'll try something else. This book just didn't do it for me.

Summary: One of my favourites
Review: I remember reading this book right through the night and realized it was the next day only when it was finished. Wilbur Smith not only has a way with words but he also includes a solid storyline, great plot, realism and very very believable characters.

Summary: Good Read
Review: Men Of Men is a great book, especially if you read the Ballantyne novels in order. After reading A Falcon Flies the reader really starts to feel for the characters, and what happens to them. I loved this book, but not as much as the Courtneys novels. make sure you dont miss When The Lion Feeds.
