The son of a wealthy plantation owner and a doting mother, Mungo St John is accustomed to the wealth and luxuries his privilege has afforded him. That is until he returns from university to discover his family ruined, his inheritance stolen and his childhood sweetheart, Camilla, taken by the conniving Chester Marion. Fuelled by anger and love, Mungo swears vengeance and devotes his life to saving Camilla - and destroying Chester.

Camilla, trapped in New Orleans, powerless to her position as a kept slave and suffering at the hands of Chester's brutish behaviour, must learn to do whatever it takes to survive.

As Mungo battles his own fate and misfortune to achieve the revenge that drives him and regain his power in the world, he must question what it takes for a man to survive when he has nothing and what he is willing to do in order to get what he wants.

An action-packed and gripping adventure by best-selling author Wilbur Smith about one man's quest for revenge, the brutality of slavery in America and the imbalance between humans that can drive - or defeat - us.

The story is excellent and take me back to bygone days. It is such a Hugh pity that the narrator didn’t do his research and kept miss pronouncing African place names on the book. It’s a shame that effort is made for French words but not African words

Full of suspense and adventure

Wilbur Smith never fails to ignite my imagination and transport me to the centre of the story he is telling. Compulsive reading/listening .. action, intrigue, surprise and thoughtful awareness - another star in the galaxy of Wilbur’s storytelling.

Awesome again ..

This book was very well read, and although it was extremely long, it mostly kept my interest. It covered a lot of ground and brought up some truths that were hard to take. The characters were interesting and well developed.

Call of the Raven was a good book

A well told story highlighting the horrendous slave trade, though more focus on this may have added to the reality of the story

Historic novel well versed

Having read every Wilbur book ever written, I was a tad disappointed. Storyline was good but not like his earlier novels....

Very good but.......
