Another triumph
After listening to Brother Fish, I wanted to experience another Bryce Courtnay novel and this did not disappoint.
The amazing characters once again drew me in and I felt the struggle of black South Africans.
Tandia experienced terrible brutality, but her strength of character helped her survive.
Another great story, brilliantly read. Don't miss it.

Spellbinding!!!!
After the amazing Power of One, Tandia continued the story and was sensational! Very well written and delivered beautifully a story off horrific times yet with magical strength of human beings.

Incredible.
I first read this book when I was a teenager and fell in love with it, what a pleased to listen to it years later. Bryce Courtenay is a wonderful writer and Humphrey Bower is a brilliant narrator. I would 100% recommend this book, but make sure you read/listen to The Power of One first. You are guaranteed to enjoy this incredible journey full of all sorts of emotions. I will take the journey again sometime!

Extraordinary Tandia
A wonderful epic novel. The characters are real and vivid digging deep into their souls for truth and resolve. "First with the Head, then with the Heart!".
Mr Bower is the master storyteller whose books are worth seeking. Another fabulous narration.

The most head bangingly upsetting story ever. <br />
After the inspiring triumph of the power of one, the joy it brought me to read as a boy the first time and the second day as a young man I thought the same of tandia. Yet as it progresses you come across one crushing g truth, the knowledge that the Timine of South Africa and the book mean there can be no triumph for these people. The only thing that saves you is k own g that they are right and just. The feeling of helplessness and sorrow and human nature so brilliantly captured in this book resonates today. We must be and can be better. We should never hate as hate is all destroying. Just bloody brilliant book

Fantastic sequel
I didn't think that The Power of One could be better but it has. I have listened to this book multiple times and read it multiple times and it still impresses me.
