"My first Wilbur Smith....I thoroughly enjoyed it didnt think I would. First read when I pregnant with my first child maybe thats why I have got such a fondness for this one?!"
"Hmmm, just so-so. He gets much much better in later books. More adventure, more suspense, better characters. That's okay, it was a fun read while camping."
"Movie quality, I think it could be made into a very good movie. Maybe the scribe from A knights Tale could play Craig?(Hmm..I'll have to think more on that.)"
