Yes | No“The power of one has three sequels to it which makes the end of the first book wanting you to go on to the next. I enjoyed reading all three books as they made you feel alive in the story, especially when he is boxing in the ring.
The book has a strong message of the racism in South of Africa going on at the time.”
“Great story with a positive ending. There were some gritty parts along hte way. Peekay and Doc are lovable characters that evoke many emotions in the reader.”
