One month into our stay, we'd managed to dispatch most of our charges. We executed the chickens. One of the cats disappeared, clearly disgusted with our urban ways. And Lucky [the cow] was escaping almost daily. It seemed we didn't have much of a talent for farming. And we still had eleven months to go." Antonia Murphy, you might say, is an unlikely farmer. Born and bred in San Francisco, she spent much of her life as a liberal urban cliché, and her interactions with the animal kingdom rarely extended past dinner.

a different kind
Revisado: 04-08-14
Would you listen to Zambezi again? Why?
This book was more about 4 streams of story line coming together, rather than having any significance towards the name at all. Just because there was a lot of mention of the Zambezi, does not make the title relevant - nevertheless, it was a refreshing approach to the story line and was well narrated.
What did you like best about this story?
the narration and the story line was slightly different as well.
What does Richard Aspel bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
accents - almost gives you a feel of 'being there'.
Any additional comments?
worth a read

Alex Tremain is a pirate in trouble. The two women in his life - one of them his financial adviser, the other his diesel mechanic - have left him. He's facing a mounting tide of debts and his crew of modern-day buccaneers, a multi-national band of ex-military cut-throats, is getting restless. They don't all share his dream of going legit, but what Alex really wants is to re-open the five-star resort hotel which once belonged to his Portuguese mother and English father on the Island of Dreams, off the coast of Mozambique.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
yes, there was always something 'different' happening.
What does Mark Davis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
the accents Mark Used and the manner in which he did, makes him an outstanding narrator.

But then one day on the road, he receives word that the South African Police have some news for him.
