Much thanks Nebsen, to my discredit this is my first time hearing of him, seems like the kind of writer I've been waiting for, and here I have to make a comparison with Games of Thrones meets A Thousand and One Nights, most definitely on my to buy list.
Hope he gets the screen play green lighted.

Anansi,
Marlon James book Black Leopard , Red wolf ,is getting really good reviews, I'm not a novel kind of guy...& from what I've gleaned his book might be over this old man's head lol...but I might just go ahead any way & get a copy ...!

He mentions writer CHarles Saunders who wrote some "Black COnan" flavored fantasy novels in the 1970s. Very interesting. I will have to check all out.

Yeah I had those books as a kid back in the 80ts, there was this comic book store in the village, great reading for some one looking for a black Conan like figure.. the Batwa was a wise Yoda like figure. BTW still waiting for the tales of Memnon to be made into a tv series.
