The Diamond Hunters - Wilbur Smith

Warlock - Wilbur Smith

Warlock is the third book in the series written by Wilbur Smith set in ancient Egypt.

The River God - Wilbur Smith

First published in 1993 by Macmillan, River God is Wilbur Smith s first book in his Egyptian series. Now considered a literary classic amongst many authors today, the book itself is a best seller in over ten countries and is considered by many Smith fans one of his best works.
