Curiosity has consequences... It can cost you your childhood-if it doesn't kill you. For the new African country Zambia, 1964 heralds a joyous and turbulent time: celebration of its independence from Britain. But for thirteen-year-old Rianna and ten-year-old Lukas and Anthony, life on Madzi Moyo-a tucked-away Mission station-is idyllic. Their biggest concern is remembering to wear a hat against the searing sun and surviving the housemother's purple cabbage pie. > About the Author > Interview with the Author Q - What makes the Be Silent series unique? A - Several things. It is a mini-series, but the books can be read as stand-alone novels. Be Good (a novella), is the prequel to the novel Be Silent. The third and final book in this series is scheduled for Spring of 2017. I wanted to create novels that reflect and paint images of the places and people I grew up with in Africa or came in contact with or read about but never had the opportunity to meet. (Although, keep in mind-the stories are all made up.) In fiction, I read and enjoy different genres-from literary to contemporary to historical fiction. What best describes this series is: a 20th-century historical action adventure. Be Good and Be Silent are indeed mixtures of many genres, which bring homage to the complex nature of the emancipation of the Southern African region and its peoples, following centuries of colonialization, ethnic conflict and political turmoil. Q - Is there any particular order to read the books? A - No. I first wrote be Silent, although Be Good takes place several years earlier. But you will still enjoy Be Good, even if you first read Be Silent. Q - Why should readers bother with this mini-series? > Thank you for reading!
