About the Books
This collection brings together the four original Ballantyne novels in publication order. A Falcon Flies opens the saga as siblings Robyn and Zouga Ballantyne sail to Africa in search of their explorer father, Robyn fighting the slave trade and Zouga driven by dreams of wealth. Men of Men follows Zouga into the brutal diamond fields of Kimberley, where obsession and rivalry test the Ballantyne name. The Angels Weep shifts to a new generation as Ralph Ballantyne's ambitions collide with rising resistance, exploring the moral cost of empire with Smith's trademark scope and drama. Finally, The Leopard Hunts in Darkness brings the saga into the twentieth century, as Craig Mellow returns to a newly independent Zimbabwe and is drawn into a dangerous investigation of ivory poaching and corruption. Together the four novels trace more than a century of the Ballantyne family's fortunes, weaving war, romance, greed and courage against the backdrop of Rhodesia's turbulent history. Wilbur Smith's storytelling is renowned for its pace, research and unflinching depiction of Africa, and this set offers the complete original saga exactly as first published, in one convenient paperback collection.
