About this listen
The second novel in Wilbur Smith's The Courtneys series, The Sound of Thunder is a powerful story of family tragedy set against the backdrop of the ravages of the Second Boer War.
'Only once in his life had Sean met a man whose strength matched his own - and now, again, they were pitted against each other....'
Sean Courtney, impulsive adventurer of When the Lion Feeds, returns from the wilderness a rich man - until he is robbed by the Boers of his wagons, his gold and the girl he loves. A grim homecoming finds his country in the cruel grip of war. But in the bloody days ahead, conflicts within his family will prove far more bitter than any fought on the veld....

A Riveting Saga With History & Nation building.
A gripping account of what bygone times were like in the early days of a fledgling South African. One may say blood is thicker than water, but these were the people who formed the true foundation of a emerging country. Will it ever be a great nation again? Father against son ,Tribe against tribe ! Can they ever get their act together?

Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Sean Barrett MAKES this so much better. His southern African accent makes the African based stories so much better!
