About this listen
Løven er Sean - helten i dette storslåede drama om de mænd, der erobrede Sydafrika i slutningen af det nittende århundrede. Sean og hans tvillingebror Garrick vokser op på faderens farm i Natal. Sean forsøger at leve op til faderens forventninger om at blive en succesfuld farmer og hårdtslående mand som sin far.
Det hårde farmerliv får dog en brat afslutning, da de blodige zulu-krige fejer hen over landet. Men det bliver også mulighedernes tid for brødrene, der i krigens virvar kan gøre sig håb om at erobre deres egne kvæghjorde. Men drømme bliver til mareridt i den grusomme masaskre ved Isandhlwana. Et nyt Sydafrika viser sig efter krigene, hvor guldfeberen raser i blodet på Sean, der finder store formuer og flytter til Johannesburg, hvor formuer skifter hænder henover natten.
"Når løven jager" er en stærk og realistisk, hensynsløs og åbenhjertig, men også eventyrlig roman fra pionerernes og zulukrigernes Afrika, guldfeberens og elfenbensjagtens Afrika. Den brændende kyst er første bind i serien om familien Courtney.

Critic reviews
Plenty of incident and colour.
-- The Observer
Pride of place goes to When the Lion Feeds because it is bigger, wider and more full of plot than all the others put together...
-- The Daily Telegraph
Wilbur Smith has built up his wide-screen adventure story with energy and shrewdness.
-- Sunday Times
Mr. Smith is a natural story-teller who moves confidently and often splendidly in his period and sustains a flow of convincing incident without repeating his excitement.
-- The Scotsman
