5.0 out of 5 stars Another gem from Wilbur Smith!, 27 April 2001
By A Customer
Once again the Courtney family, their lives and adventures, keep you gripped from page one. In this book Isabella Courtney takes centre stage and we follow her from London to Spain and, of course, back home to Africa. She falls in love with a handsome foreigner- but who is this man really? What are his true intentions? She is trapped in the lair of the 'Golden Fox'. The book follows her life in Africa as she undergoes emotional torture and blackmail which only her strength of character and determination allow her to endure. She is torn between family love and loyalty, and loyalty to her country. Her brothers become embroiled in the troubles and are set one against the other. Will the Courtney family survive this unseen enemy? A book with something for everyone - adventure, love, the world of spies and revolution, and the beauty of Africa. You will turn each page in eager anticipation - what will happen next?!

4.0 out of 5 stars A vivid tale of intrigue and adventure in 1970's Africa, 26 Feb 2007
This review is from: Golden Fox (Hardcover)
A thoroughly enjoyable book. Starting at a Rolling Stones concert in London's Hyde Park and ending with the potential slaughter of innocents in South Africa this book paints an intriguing picture of third party interference in Africa in the 1970's. Part of the Courtney series, this one focuses on Isabella although her three brothers and other prominent members of the family feature heavily, not least because Isabella's action as the result of her relationship with a mysterious foreigner set brother against brother. Well thought through and written, the book keeps you engaged from start to finish and makes you wonder whether such events really could and did happen. The deep sea fishing section I found particularly engaging and a tribute to Wilbur Smith's descriptive abilities.

3.0 out of 5 stars Golden Fox, 11 Feb 2006
By jelmer dorigo (netherlands) - See all my reviews
The book is another Courtney series book. If you have read the other ones this one is a must however there are much better books in the courtney series. The story in golden fox kept me from wanting to read it as soon as possible because the story is more a series of small stories while the plot is not very appealing.
