Man of Stone and Shadow
In 2099, an unassuming young man enrolls for an African History degree at the Azania State University, somewhere in Southern Africa. When a chance encounter with an ancient artifact at the University Museum leaves him with the ability to transform into the shadow of anything he touches, he goes on a journey to discover who he really is and why he was chosen to have such powers. But there is someone else who is after his gifts: a powerful sorcerer who will stop at nothing to change the face of the continent, leaving death and destruction in his wake. With time running out, Luyanda has to find a way to master the shadows, save his own skin and stop a madman before he becomes an undefeatable tyrant.
Love Back
In this romantic comedy set in Johannesburg, a fake “healer” falls in love with the woman he’s meant to win over for his client. Senzo Mabizela is a man of many talents.

The Trojan War
Did the Trojan War really happen? Spectacular new archaeological evidence suggests that it did. Recent excavations and newly translated Hittite texts reveal that Troy was a large, wealthy city allied with the Hittite Empire. Located at the strategic entrance to the Dardanelles, the link between the Aegean and Black Sea, it was a tempting target for marauding Greeks, the Vikings of the Bronze Age. The Trojan War may have been the inevitable consequence of expanding Greek maritime commerce. Written by a leading expert on ancient military history, the true story of the most famous battle in history is every bit as compelling as Homer's epic account - and confirms many of its details. In The Trojan War, master storyteller Barry Strauss puts legend into its historical context, without losing its poetry and grandeur. `Consumed in one of those burning-the-midnight-oil situations... I really enjoyed it' Michael Wood 'Brilliant interweaving of the mythic and the modern' Scotsman `An exciting tale written in a lively style that brings Homer's heroes and the world in which they lived to vibrant and colourful life' Donald Kagan
