Description

Dream Of Africa: Chaos Before Order

This fiction thriller poses the questions, 'What if Africa were one nation, one economy, had one armed force, how great would it be? Fungai sets out to achieve this dream. With a powerful enemy after him, he will require supernatural abilities to survive and build an organisation that will make his dream come true. The story is rooted in the dark history of Africa, the myths of its ancestors, the prevailing chaos and the undying aspirations of the African people for a better future.

A relentless and powerful enemy threatens Fungai----'s dream. The leaders of his clandestine organisation, Antu, are assassinated. He escapes to the land of his ancestors, where he acquires ancient knowledge and powers. With these skills, he builds a modern-day organisation whose mission is singular: one African nation. His assassination awakens the masses across Africa, chaos follows, and an uprising is born, as Fungai had foreseen.

Kora el Sukuta is scarred by the horror of seeing his family slaughtered. He vows never to be weak again. He becomes Onim-the Crocodile, a ruthless crook and, ultimately, the President of the Zonga Republic. He will stop at nothing to eliminate Fungai. He succeeds, but in doing so, sets off an uprising that threatens him and his cohorts.

After Fungai disappears and is feared dead, Beki, Fungai's fiancée, know she and her unborn child are in danger. She must find a way to survive. She lays low in a women's refugee where she gives birth to a baby boy. But she knows President Onim will never give up searching for her. She must make the ultimate sacrifice. She leaves her son in the refuge to become the wife of the despicable President Onim. A master of duality, she plays the loving wife while spying for Antu, making sure her son is safe.

Brought up in a women's refuge, Fumi believes he is an orphan. He takes over Fungai's organisation, only to realise he has been set up. He is Fungai and Beki's son and has to take forward Fungai's dream-to make Africa one.

The book takes the reader through an exciting journey of Africa, its tribulations, hopes and dreams in a way that provokes thought, evokes emotions and raises questions; especially for people of African origin or those with an interest in Africa.
