Fabulous as always
Bryce Courtenay writes the most engaging stories and this follows on from his previous novels and is fascinating. The characters are so well portrayed you feel like you know them and the attention to detail regarding their lives as they would have been at that time is excellent. Highly recommended.

Fantastic in a different way than book 1
Once again a 5 star rating. Different place and different time, but new adventures and truly amazing characteristics once again. Can't wait to get the last book!

Compelling.
The book itself is a must read and compelling novel of love, hate and sadness.
The man who brings this story to life, is narrator Humphrey Bower, who is with out doubt the world's best narrator.

A pleasant surprise
I didn't know if I'd like this book. Being the follow-up to The Potato Factory I thought I may have had enough of this story.
Expertly told by Bryce Courtenay, this follows the growing up of Tommo & Hawk and the trials and tribulations of whale fishing, wars against the British in New Zealand, opium addiction, bare fist fighting, racism, sexism, prostitution... all in a days work for Bryce.
The clever use of each character having their own chapters helped you to explore the two different personalities.
The story flowed effortlessly and was superbly narrated, as always, by Humphrey Bower. You felt you were in the characters head.
Nicely left at the end for a sequel.
