A Falcon Flies launches readers into the heart of 19th-century Africa alongside the indomitable Ballantyne siblings as they carve a path into an uncharted continent; The Dark of the Sun chronicles a brutal race against time in the war-torn Congo, where mercenary Bruce Curry must confront both enemy forces and the darkest corridors of his own soul; while The Sunbird weaves an extraordinary dual narrative across millennia, unearthing the secrets of a lost civilisation buried beneath the Kalahari sands.\n\nPresented here complete and unabridged, these three novels showcase Smith's masterful command of pace, his vivid rendering of African landscapes, and his gift for populating adventure with characters of genuine moral complexity. Rooted in meticulous historical research yet driven by the pulse of pure storytelling, his prose blurs the boundary between the personal and the epic — between intimate human drama and continent-shaking conflict. Together, these works form an essential cornerstone of African adventure fiction, and once the first page is turned, the wilderness refuses to let you go.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203390611675,"sku":"2026200013607-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1c0e31e2-9aae-469b-ac9d-cffb0ee7219c.png?v=1788148290","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013607-secondhand-a-falcon-flies-the-dark-of-the-sun-the-sunbird","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
