The Warrior's Apprentice

The traditional world of the Masai warrior has no place in the sanitised world of the One World Government - but one family is determined to keep it alive. In secret, the last of the Masai warriors passes on his knowledge to his son, but such a secret cannot stay hidden. When Njau kills a rogue lion, he is hailed as a hero; but do his new benefactors have hidden motives? Seduced by the pleasures thrust upon him, he is tricked into using the skills he learnt from his father to search out and kill a free radical living wild in the bush beyond the reach of the authorities. But as a young man caught between the traditional world of his Masai warrior ancestors and the neutered world of the One World Government, who can Njau really trust? The Warrior's Apprentice is a near-future dystopian political thriller which pits the strength of man's free spirit against the might of a ruthless totalitarian bureaucracy. Can centuries of tradition stand up to the absolute power of the state which offers only one choice... to subdue or to be subdued?
