Critics Review

Fatherland for an action movie age - Daily Telegraph

[an] intoxicating debut … a glorious, exhaustingly energetic romp through an Africa which wasn’t, but which might have been … Written with style, verve and startling lyricism, THE AFRIKA REICH makes serious points as it entertains. - Historical Novel Review

Guy Saville’s scorching debut novel [is] a terrifying account of the way things might have been … Immaculately researched and with accompanying notes to put the story into its context, THE AFRIKA REICH is an exciting first novel which blends history and fiction into an unforgettable drama. - Lancashire Evening Post

[the] plot is clever, imaginative and, in its finale, wholly unexpected. In a crowded field, THE AFRIKA REICH stands out as a rich and unusual thriller, politically sophisticated and hard to forget. - Economist

Saville gives us an horrific reimagining of the Dark Continent - The Times

An enthralling look at the horror that might have been if Germany was not defeated - Sydney Daily Telegraph

This graphic, pacy alternate history thriller is scarily convincing. - Australian

With THE AFRIKA REICH, Guy Saville has delivered a highly entertaining read in the vein of Robert Harris’ Fatherland and Archangel. Selling us us on a plausible and engrossing alternative history, featuring rich characters (who he’s not afraid to kill off) and a fastpaced plot. - New Zealand Star
