AFRICAN SKIES
"Amor Vincit Omnia."
Latin proverb.
English translation: Love conquers all.
A hunt for man-eating lions in East Africa in the summer of 2010 leads a young American veteran on a journey that changes his life forever in African Skies, a meditation on survival, war, loss, and love in this first novel by the author of Ronin, The Long Patrol and Hell is Over, Mike Tucker.
“African Skies is a solid, solid love story. Rich, refreshing and enlightening, this is a novel rooted in the ancient proverb, love conquers all. It is also a brilliant meditation on the healing power of love.” —Edward Hume. Artist. Los Angeles, California.
“Mike Tucker creates a modern legend built on passion and loss in African Skies, weaving together a terrific love story with combat narratives. African Skies conjures the power of devotion—to a cause, a family and to a beloved. Along the way, Tucker brings us action, scintillating description and page-turning enjoyment as a contemporary myth unfolds.”
