Summary
Following on from his bestselling novels A Year in the Wild and Back to the Bush, James Hendry returns to the setting of Sasekile Private Game Reserve for another tale that takes the listener behind the scenes with the MacNaughton brothers, Angus and Hugh. It is four and a half years since Angus’s last year in the wild when he was newly appointed to the position of head ranger at Sasekile. Much has happened in the interim.
In Return to the Wild there is high drama, much hilarity and close encounters with wildlife, fire and human incompetence as Angus unexpectedly returns to Sasekile to take on the training of a motley group of would-be game rangers with his usual stark but eloquent honesty. Alongside him, Hugh manages the lodge and its colourful staff with a varying degree of competence as events lurch from mishap to potential catastrophe.
Whether you are a fan of the MacNaughtons’ previous misadventures or a listener new to their story, Return to the Wild is a highly amusing, engaging and heartfelt listen.

A more controlled Angus
The next chapter is great, and it's nice to have a bit of a gap between this one and the last episode. Thus gives both String Bean and Hugh time to mature (slightly).
the narration is great, although the continuality of the audio dips now and then, which didn't happen in book 1.
The story itself easily makes up for that.
The diary approach makes more sense than the emails, as more personal info gets shared, without preamble of apologies to Julia.

Brilliant
The whole family loved both books! Many hours listening, laughing, crying and feeling part of the magic that is the African bush. Thank you James!
