A Hunger in the Soul

by Mike Resnick

Overview

A science-fictionalization of Stanley's search for Livingstone, this takes place on the planet Bushveld, as Robert Markham searches for the elusive Dr. Michael Drake, and Resnick -- a veteran of half a dozen trips to Africa -- offers his very untraditional version of the epic safari and its conclusion.

Editorial Reviews

Much of the novel's point comes in the final pages, but the first 200 pages are not wasted. Resnick carefully creates the characters and their traits so that the ending carries as much weight as possible.

Steven H. Silver

Resnick's latest novel tells a first-rate survival story that should appeal to fans of sf adventure.
