### ⭐ 







  
  
    very depressing.  left the reader without hope.
  

*by E***T on November 5, 2018*









  
  
    First, let me state that I am an avid reader and it is rare for me not to finish a book once started.  However, The Last Savannah was just too depresding and I couldn't continue past the first third of the book.  While the story is both relevant and truthful, the main character was depressing.  I think the story would have been better if the author would not have dwelt so much on the depression of the main character and instead focused on the task the ranger and helpers were trying to accomplish, saving the elephants.  Also, the author ended the story leaving the reader without hope for improvement of the situation.  Yes, not wanting to continue a depressing book, I did page through, skimming to the end, so know how it ended.
  


### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Surprise!
  

*by S***N on December 6, 2018*









  
  
    It started out like a novel/story about the African Savanna and animals.  This really drew me into the story, but too soon the author drew humans into the story.  It was still interesting, as he described the land, some cultures, and animals. But, the ending of the story is what surprised me the most.  Some how I was expecting death and/or murder and even a sexual encounter or so, but the ending was not at all what I expected.I won't go into it. You'll have to read it for yourself.  I believe the ending will surprise you, too.I did noticed or I should say felt that the author has encountered the sadness and disappointments in his own life.  I could be very wrong, but that is what I felt or rather believed while reading the story.
  


### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An Interesting Read.
  

*by R***H on September 4, 2018*









  
  
    Story is told from the perspective of many sides of life in Africa.  From the white farmer/soldier to elephant poachers, to Kenyan officials, it at times makes sudden jumps in perspective.  It examines the complexities of life in Africa with various cultures coming into conflict.  It is more than a mystery or cops and robbers story.  It tells the story of survival in the desert, the poaching of elephants, the changes in Africa.  At times the symbolism and background tend to slow the story more than I would have liked.  Lots of descriptions of the area.
