A Sparrow Falls, another gripping installment in Wilbur Smith's Courtney Family Adventure series Mark Anders grew up on eight thousand acres of African land that bore his family name. Then he fought in Europe's Great War and, upon returning to his ancestral home, he saw savagery unlike any other.... In Africa, Mark's family estate has been despoiled. His grandfather has died under mysterious circumstances. And he has inherited a murderous enemy--the rogue scion of the powerful Courtney clan--in an altogether new kind of war. Now, Mark will make a fateful choice between two women. Journey into the wilderness to uncover his grandfather's fate. Find his way through battles raging between fathers and sons, generals and politicians, and nature and man. In an age of violent conflict, Mark Anders will live or die for justice--and his fight will echo across a country he always loved....

A Sparrow Falls | Wilbur Smith
Pickpick

Book #3 in the Courtney Family series. This book is mainly from a non-Courtney point of view, although Mark Ander‘s is close enough to almost be considered family. There is war in this book, but mostly it has to do with the plummeting wildlife and efforts to create a refuge. Along with all the family, political, and romantic drama of course.

Mehso-so

I've only recently started reading Wilbur smiths books and ate up the first two of the Courtney tales. This one however was mediocre. I didn't hate it but it didn't have me hooked like the first 2 until the end.
