I also went through the phase that they are all about apartheid and violence, but I have also gown up and realized that is a major part of our lives, as South Africans. I loved Kringe in die Bos and Fiela se Kind. Deon Meyer is my weekend in bed reading. I love the pace and action and Benny Grissel stories. Bryce Courtney was a little bit not so nice, after I realized all his books are the same storyline. But the first one “Power of One” is still a brilliant book. And I have read just about every Wilbur Smith book out there. Like South African music, we have to get over stereotypes, and just enjoy and appreciate.
