About the Author
Stephen Davies is a missionary living amongst Fulani herders in West Africa. He speaks Fulfulde, eats millet, accompanies cattle-drives and preaches the gospel in culturally relevant ways. At present he is working towards the set-up of a Fulfulde radio station which will broadcast news, griot music and advice about cows, crops and health. He also writes for the Guardian Weekly (Letters from Bukina Faso) and occasionally for the Sunday Times. Have a look at his website: www.voiceinthedesert.org.uk
Review
"This classy tale is as much a snapshot of West Africa as an adventure, but it has a thrilling camel race and a surprising denouement." -- Judith Woods * Daily Telegraph * "A rich and fascinating insight into West African culture." * Carousel *
