AmaZulu [Paperback]

Walton Golightly (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 15, 2011

Set on the southeast coast of southern Africa in the early 1800s, AmaZulu retells the story of Shaka's rise to power, and also that of the Induna, a captain in his army, and his udibi, or young apprentice. AmaZulu follows their adventures through these momentous times, the campaigns and battles that saw Shaka create an empire as powerful and revered as Napoleon's France and Caesar's Rome.

Action and adventure, detection and humor, AmaZulu is a true South African epic.
