EXCELLENT
Great story and highlights the futility of war and colossal waste of life. But we never learn from history and it continues today.

A fitting end to the saga
This book concludes the saga so beautifully started in The Potato Factory. It immerses one completely in the continuing family story and is thoroughly descriptive of all human nature. It runs the reader through the full gauntlet of emotions. However, if the reader is at all squeamish, I suggest be wary because of that descriptiveness. It describes the horror, futility and comradeship of WW1 in full force. Humphrey Bower is of course perfect in his narration once again.

Good but no medal
I greatly enjoyed the previous two books in this trilogy but found this one a little unsatisfying. For me it lacked a little continuity, had a little too much philosophy and despite its great length rushed to a conclusion.
However an essential listen AFTER the earlier two.

Any additional comments?
Having read 'The Power of One' many moons ago, I was well aware that Bryce Courtenay could tell a tale, as it has been my number one recommendation to anyone who will listen for many a year. However, it has now been usurped by this amazing trilogy. Humphrey Bower's narration is superb, and if anyone is looking for a great story steeped in historical fact, these 3 books are a must! I am sorry to have come to the end of such a riveting listen. Bravo, Mr. Courtenay, Bravo!!!

Enjoyable listening
Another enjoyable book from Bryce Courtenay. It follows the Saga and family rivally from the previous two books. This one neatly follows on from Tommo and Hawk answering questions left from that story. The new generation has thier own dilemas and trauma as the story weaves through those into the first world war.
It did leave me feeling there is plenty of room for a further book.

The Last Of The Trilogy...
Would you consider the audio edition of Solomon's Song to be better than the print version?
Yes because of the fabulous performance by the narrator Humphrey Bower. I read the first book and have listened to the second and third and thoroughly enjoyed them all.
What did you like best about this story?
After already having such a strong bond with the characters from the other 2 books it was good to have some conclusion in the final of the three.
Which character – as performed by Humphrey Bower – was your favourite?
Mary Abacus is by far my favourite character overall.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The ending was VERY emotional to say the least!
Any additional comments?
Was sad to have this fabulous trilogy of books come to an end. Bryce Courtenay is a wonderful author has a great flow and makes for an easy read. I didn't want to put any of them down. As with the other books in the series there is a great sense of history and the ability to tell it well.
