Another thing I liked was how most of the chapters ended on a cliffhanger and improved the suspense. More so, anyone could die at any time, protagonists and antagonists alike. As a result, I was kept on the edge of my seat the whole time, hoping that none of my favorite characters lost their lives. The third-person narrative style and the occasional dialogue between characters not only helped me have a bird-eye view of the story but also helped me understand the characters better. At some point, I was even attached to one of the antagonists and hoped he wouldn’t be caught.

I have to also commend the narrator of the book; I listened to the audio version of the novel. Michael McGovern’s voice narration was superb and further enhanced my enjoyment of the book. I enjoyed every bit of this publication and found nothing to dislike about it.
- I have already fallen for the protagonists, antagonists, the narrator for the audio book and the book itself, thanks to this review. The details were all amazingly conveyed without giving away too much. Thank you.

Drawing awareness to the threat of lion poaching and trophy hunting, today's BOTD is a thriller full of mystery and suspense. Readers of the genre (me!) are going to love the well-developed characters and engaging storyline! I've added this to my WTR list...thank you so much! :-)

In this story, Ranpha and Paul are friends whose relationship spices the read up. If you are someone who loves stories about wildlife, poaching, and mystery, this book will keep you hooked through the end.

The book is a gripping adventure with unexpected twists and mystery. The author has shed light on the dark world of wildlife poaching. Eager to know about the challenges the courageous young students will face and what happens to the lions after their escape from the Lion Park. Great review!

I appreciate the theme of freindship at a young age and the one of the kindness of the two children. They wish for justice to be made and they curiously follow the unfolding of events.

"Justice of the Wild" by Michael du Preez seems intriguing. That a pride of lions escaped from their camp must have been scary. There are more mysteries to uncover. Congrats on BOTD. Beautiful review.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting thriller story following a group of game wardens and students that must investigate and stop a pride of lions that has escaped from a reserve before it is too late. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

The disappearance of the lions is concerning, but I'm puzzled by the question of who took them, given that the wardens don't have them in their custody.

Definitely not my cup of tea, because I love nature and am a strict supporter of any activity against cruelty to animals, and it sounds way too much like sanctioned lion hunting for my liking and turns me off this book. Sorry and congrats with BOTD!

'From the beginning of the book to the end, one thing I enjoyed was the relationship between Ranpha and Paul. I think the way the author started the story enhanced their bond.'
This book seem to have an interesting story with well developed characters.

Nice review! I am an animal lover and a nature lover, so this book should be right up my alley. I have never been to Africa, but from what I've seen on tv, it is just beautiful.
