Author's Warning: Avoid this Book!


Sue Hall's Review of "Masters of the Confluence"


This is a fascinating book. 


The story develops over a couple of generations whilst exploring culture, history, colonialism, family and relationships.


The author provides a warning at the beginning of the book suggesting that this is a book to be avoided if you are looking for a story. But its an unnecessary warning.  The book holds your attention because it explores pain, death sadness and joy in a particular cultural context. 


It is written well, but I did feel sometimes an editor would have removed some minor niggles. 
I do hope there is a volume 2.
