Reviews Avoid this 2 out of 5 Don't like happy ending 4 out of 5 (Ruthy) Don't like happy ending 4 out of 5 (Ruthy) Brilliant! The descriptions of her capture by the African tribe (Massi?) are just my cup of tea. 5 out of 5 (SOOTY) Great adventure story but the writing appears disjointed at times, leaving gaps in expression and understanding. However, worth a read as it keeps ones interest throughout. 4 out of 5 (Fred) |
