The Sound of Thunder: A Courtney Family Novel | Wilbur Smith

Book #2 in the Courtney Family novels. This one had a lot of war…I tend to find the descriptions of war maneuvers boring and it felt like half the book was about it. Sean and Garrick‘s lives are still very different, but now they are in the same place and their lives intersect a bit. Michael has grown into a great man, Dirk is spoiled & rotten, and so far Storm seems to live up to her name…but she‘s quite young still.
