Author Beverly Swerling (City of Dreams trilogy), describes Amandla as: An epic novel that hews closely to the true story of the South African struggle and with the iconic Mandela as its shadowy fulcrum. Swerling adds: I could easily see this story written for adults and told with grace and skill from a foundation of deep knowledge and careful scholarship, becoming recommended reading in a lot of high school courses. And a good thing that would be! Diane Donovan, senior reviewer for Midwest Book Review, says: Anyone who wants to better understand the many undercurrents affecting justice, freedom and survival in past and present South Africa needs to read Amandla. It serves as the perfect introduction and summation of the country's controversial history, personalizing the story with characters who move through generations of conflict in a desperate attempt to win back their worlds and freedom. Amandla is very highly recommended for not only its historical roots, but for its ability to inject thriller, romance and family history components into the bigger picture of the struggle for power and freedom in South Africa.
