Born in a South Africa divided by racism and hatred, this one small boy will come to lead all the tribes of Africa. Through enduring friendships with Hymie and Gideon, Peekay gains the strength he needs to win out. And in a final conflict with his childhood enemy, the Judge, Peekay will fight to the death for justice.

11/10
Absoloodle the best. For this I give eleven out of ten. This is one of the best books I’ve ever read. The audible version is narrated perfectly, really pulling you into the story. A powerful story with a powerful message.

The best performance I have ever heard
The Power of One - An amazing story with an equally amazing performance. Perfect.
This will join the the small handful of books I will give to my son to read when he is ready.

Beautiful
What rollercoaster of a story. Rarely do I laugh out loud or feel sad reading a book but this one got to me.
I highly recommend it.

Spectacular
There are good narrators, great narrators, and then there is Humphrey Bower. He is truly in a class by himself. The breadth of accents (Afrikaans, British, Zulu, etc) create a truly immersive experience. Don't be fooled by the forgettable movie of the same title; this is a powerful, riveting story. And it is made all the richer through Mr Bower's skill. Kudos to the publisher for including a brief foreward read by the author himself that recounts the humourous backstory to how this wonderful book came to be.

Amazing Book!! Please Listen!! Please Share!!!
It's a journey well worth the effort...step into the shoes of young Peekay and share in his pain, share in his victories, and most importantly share in and adopt his innocent perspective....a perspective that starts out naive, steadily becomes worldly - Additionally please pay attention to the nuance, so that you can use Peekay's insights to both exam and better your own life.

Amazing
An incredible story that keeps the listener listening. Narration is very well done, particularly with all the different accents. I will be starting my next Bryce Courtney book today.
