About Hunting in Africa: An African Safari Thriller
Hunting in Africa: An African Safari Thriller
In the 1950s, three men embark on a hunting safari deep in the African wilderness. Edward Collins, a hardened ex-soldier. Richard Lawson, a wealthy thrill-seeker. James Walker, a young American photographer chasing the perfect shot. Armed with powerful rifles and high ambitions, they believe they can conquer the wild.
But the African bush has other plans.
Guided by seasoned porters led by the unshakable Biko, the men soon discover that survival is never guaranteed. Nights bring lions circling dangerously close, their roars shaking the tents. Days bring fever, tsetse flies, scarcity of food and water, and hunts that can turn deadly in seconds. A wounded buffalo nearly crushes them. Elephant tracks lead deeper into forbidden country. And always watching from the shadows is the legendary pale-maned lion, Simba Mweupe, rumored to hunt humans like prey.
What begins as a hunt for trophies becomes a desperate battle to escape the savannah alive.
Fast-paced, atmospheric, and tense from the first page, Hunting in Africa immerses readers in a living, breathing wilderness where every choice is a gamble and every shadow may hide the predator that ends the journey.

Author Bio:
Dear Reader,
I’m N W Martin, an author fascinated by health, history, and stories that often go untold. I draw from my own experiences, careful research, and guidance from professionals to write health guides that are practical, compassionate, and grounded in real life.
Beyond health writing, I love shining a light on underrepresented figures through historical biographies and creating historical fiction thrillers that weave tension with thoughtful insight. Whether I’m writing nonfiction or fiction, I’m always interested in understanding people, their choices, struggles, and the forces that shape lives.
I have been a reader and curious learner my whole life with a particular interest in botanical medicine and the ways natural approaches can complement modern treatments. I spend time experimenting with plant-based remedies, cooking, and learning from both tradition and science, all of which quietly influence my work. My best ideas usually strike in the middle of the night, and I follow them straight to my typewriter!
Through each book, I hope to inform, challenge, and connect with readers, sharing stories and guidance shaped by curiosity, care, and a deep respect for the complexity of human experience.
