Description
The brand new thriller from bestseller Deon Meyer.
Praise for The Last Hunt
The undisputed champion of South African crime. Meyer grabs you by the throat and never lets you go
Meyer weaves a web of intrigue, deception thrills and violence in as good a murder mystery/police procedural as you're likely to read. The richly drawn characters are flesh and blood and the plots all too realistic... quite brilliant
From its startling opening to its tense and thrilling conclusion, Deon Meyer's The Last Hunt takes you on a whirlwind safari across two continents. In the whole of the Benny Griessel series so far, the stakes have never been higher or the odds so much against
The Last Hunt is magnificent! Crime writing at its very best.
Geopolitically complex, richly populated, and textured... a terrific book, abounding with South African - and French - flavor, political and procedural sophistication, and characters you'd want to have a dop with. (Afrikaans for a drink; linguistic riches abound here as well!)
Mr Meyer's humane and engaging characters are indeed among "the best of the best"
Praise for Deon Meyer
Compelling, action-packed and fraught with emotion. At its heart it is a powerful exploration of humanity at its best and worst and bears favourable comparison with landmarks of the genre such as Stephen King's The Standand Cormac McCarthy's The Road. Simply stunning.
Reminiscent of The Stand and The Passage. Great stuff.
Emotional and atmospheric...There are shades of Cormac McCarthy's superb The Road, but FEVER grips even more.
Deon Meyer lives near Cape Town in South Africa. His big passions are mountain biking, music, reading, cooking and rugby. In January 2008 he retired from his day job as a consultant on brand strategy for BMW Motorrad, and is now a full time author. Deon Meyer's books have attracted worldwide critical acclaim and a growing international fanbase. Originally written in Afrikaans, they have now been translated into twenty-eight languages. THIRTEEN HOURS was shortlisted for the CWA International Dagger and won the Boeke Prize in South Africa - the first time in the prize's 16 year history that a South African book has won. His novels have also won literary prizes in the USA, France, Sweden, Germany and the Netherlands, and the film rights to seven of his novels have been optioned or sold. Deon has also written two television series, and several screenplays for movies. In 2013 he directed one of his original scripts for the feature film The Last Tango.
