About this listen

In a land where survival is a struggle, can a broken man find redemption?

When Lieutenant James Bowman steps off the train in 1920s Salisbury, Rhodesia, he carries more than his kitbag—he bears the weight of war trauma and abandoned love...

His encounter with Colonel Voss, an aging adventurer with tales of ancient civilisations and promises of glory, offers an escape from his haunted past. "The legend has it there was a great civilisation here when we in Europe were still climbing trees and living in caves," Voss claims, drawing Jim into a dangerous expedition into Africa's heartland.

As they prepare for their journey into the unmapped wilderness, Jim finds himself torn between suspicion and fascination. Is Voss a charlatan preying on newcomers, or does he truly know the location of a lost empire that predates Christ?

Against the backdrop of colonial Africa, where the land itself becomes both adversary and seducer, Jim must decide if the promise of redemption is worth risking everything. For in the shadow of empire, among beasts both wild and human, the greatest peril may be the burden of expectations he carries from a world away.

Mad Dogs and Englishmen is the third book in the Brigandshaw Chronicles, where the legacy of adventure and family continues to unfold.

Exotic adventure

I liked the historical nature of the book and the different, memorable characters. I also liked that most of it took place in Africa.
