| Sniper of the Kalahari : | I think the hardest case was when a corpse was found in the desert, half eaten by wild animals, and deliberately mutilated to be unidentifiable. The case was choked by politics, and powerful people high up. And one of the country’s biggest companies was involved. And the stakes kept escalating with one vicious killing after the next. But that’s another story"
A real story like this happened some days ago...coinsidence? |
| D. Ikegami from Hawaii : | When will the next detective Kubu be available?. Your books are refreshing and detective Kubu is a gem! |
| Paul : | After only reading the first book Kubu feels like an old friend! What a great character. |
| sally fifer - momfifer@milwpc.com : | Love kubu! Will you put recipes on your sight? specifically bootie? |
| Merilyn : | Thoroughly enjoyed your books...looking forward to the next one. |
| Jean-Pierre from Luxembourg : | Thanks for the french version of " a carrion death ". Wonderful characters. I am looking forward for the french version of " a deadly trade ". Well done. |
| Sue : | Why don`t all Batswana treat their dogs like Kubu? What a fine example he is setting to his fellow countymen :-)) |
| Bill Nowlin : | What are the ingredients of a steelworks? I`ve long been a ginger beer aficionado - not always the easiest drink to find in the United Staets - but I`d never heard of a steelworks. |
| Patricia Bannerman : | Will you put Moreme and Kweh into the next book? A wonderful character!! Thanks for taking me to Botswana. P.B. |
| Jacqueline Stone : | Have been happily engrossed in The Second Death... Even better than A Carrion Death. I love the characters, particularly Kubu and his family, Tatwa and the irascible Mabaku. I spent two years in Africa as a child and the beautiful descriptions of the "bush" and the wild animals and birds brought back so many happy memories. How soon will you two gentlemen be putting out another book? |
| Martha : | I love these books. Just wanted you to know I made Bobotie for dinner tonight. |
| Lori : | I have been thoroughly engrossed in your book. I think I know what`s going to happen and who did it, and then the plot takes another turn, and I don`t. I have so much enjoyed Alexander McCall Smith`s characters and settings from The Number One Ladies Detective series that I was excited to find another book set in Botswana. I can`t wait to find out what Kubu is up to next. |
| Roger Peterson : | Comment: Picked your book from "new novels" in our San Antonio Library as just something to read. What a wonderful surprise. It is well written, flows well, has interesting points about foreign lands, etc.. I will surely want to read more when available. Congratualaltions! |
| Joanne : | This is a wonderful story and your characters have real depth and humanity. I was drawn to them as I am to Donna Leon`s Venetian detective. I picked it up because I enjoy mysteries and Alexander McCall-Smith`s lady detective series has sparked my interest in the lives of everyday people in Africa. Well done. Can`t wait for more. |
| Lois Goodall : | No question - just a comment. There is a skit on Saturday Nite Live where they say "MORE COWBELL - -- MORE COWBELL All I have to say is MORE KUBU --- MORE KUBU. Great read!!!! |
| virgina Coon : | When will you second book be published? |
| Deborah Butler : | I would like to know when the second book is expected out. I very much enjoyed the first one. We will be making our first trip to Africa next week, we will be at Kitchwa Tembo in the Masai Mara area, it was so exciting to read about the cultural aspect of Africa, even though it is a different area. I look forward to the next book. Thank you. |
| angelo arecco : | Not a question, just that I enjoyed translating your marvellous book into Italian for Sonzogno. I hope I was able to convey the meaning of that `missing word` in my own language. You see, in Italian grammar the `passive progressive` form is not existing, but with the gerund tense. I wish a lot of my Country keen readers of the genre will love the book. angelo. |
| Judith Lanier : | Not a question, just a comment on how much I enjoyed your book! Vividly realistic and thoroughly enjoyable! Well done! |
| Sam : | One of the greatest books I`ve ever read! Excellent array of characters and awesome plot depth. I look forward to reading the next!! |
