“ What causes a lion to become a “man-eater”? Genetics? Opportunity? Lack of other prey? Maybe reading Before Dawn by Robert E. Reeves will shed some light on the subject”, this only has me wanting to read this book.
Thanks for this beautiful review.

That was one honest review. Although I feel discouraged by the number of errors present, I really appreciate your honesty.

Do! It was a very good idea, just not executed well. :wink: :oops:

I giggled while reading the ending sentence. It seems Charles' wealth was a center of discussion in this book. I was disappointed to know that such an interesting concept for me did not live up to its expectations. I will not be reading it soon before the author attends to its multitude of errors. Thank you for the critical and insightful review!

I enjoyed reading your review Amy Luman, it was honest and informative. The repeated mention of Charles' wealth does seem irritating and unnecessary - I agree with you there.
They are called upon by Noah Mwangi, Kenya’s Minister of Forestry and Wildlife, to capture and study three lions accused of attacking and killing humans. This will be good for Charlie’s business, as well as the zoo, especially if they can find the cause of the attacks.
That's the intriguing bit, I would like to read the book, errors, show offs and all, to find out. Perhaps the lions needed easy prey. I guess there's plenty of potential for bad publicity about the zoo if the lions can't be persuaded to take humans off the menu.

I didn't mind knowing that he had the money, but that's not all that's important! :?

It's very sad to see a book with so much potential be poorly executed. I hope the author takes your suggestions and put them to good use. Thanks for your honest review.

The storyline is interesting. I like wildlife and have visited game parks since I was a kid. Wildlife conservation officers will like this book. I happen to know one.

The plot of the story sounded very interesting. It's too bad that the rest of it was not up to par. I hope the author uses your criticisms constructively and fixes the weak areas. Thanks for your detailed and honest review!
