The green swells of the South Atlantic, the fever-ridden shores of the Indian Ocean and the vanished Eden that was the African interior are the setting for this wide-sweeping novel.
"Wilbur Smith...offers a stirring African adventure story and delivers just that. Throughout A FALCON FLIES there is a genuine sense of excitement and wonder. And there is a streak of genuine poetry here, all the more effective for being unfeigned." (Sunday Telegraph, London)
A FALCON FLIES is the first installment in the Ballantyne saga.
