Rui Perreira is a young adventurer, born in Lisbon in the beginning years of the modern age. When he hears of the legend of the lost civilisation of Afar in Africa, and discovers a map to the ancient city, he sets out to the mbanza of the Manikongo Nzinga a Mbemba in the Kongo, in search of the place. He finds the Kongo in the wash of a war of it's own, and he flees the Mbanza, following the map, which takes him deep into the territory of an enemy that is far more dangerous than he imagined, and foreign to anything he has ever encountered. His journey takes him through the dark jungles of the Kongo basin, and into the dry lands of the Sahel. What he finds there, is different to anything he could have anticipated, and more deeply meaningful than anything life, as he had known it, could offer.

Review
At first glance, this book looks to be an historical adventure full of strange and exotic places with danger lurking in every page. However, once the reader begins their journey, they will start to see incredible details into a lost world. This story has elements of intrigue into old world politics and social standards with a dash of romance. I very much enjoyed this story and feel that I will continue to find some new detail with additional readings. - Ebook Guru
