Humorous African Adventure Comedy
It’s September 1999 when the hunt for a diamond mine in Central Africa begins. Three 15 carat gemstones are in the hands of Benedict Mbombo, President of the fledgling Democratic Republic of Tumbwa in the Congo. Arriving at the scene are the experts in diamond exploration – the powerful Africa Corporation – from London and Johannesburg.
Worlds collide as the protagonists on all sides struggle with sex, drugs, deception, greed and insoluble financial problems.
It might only be a matter of time before everyone loses sight of their objectives . . . or their lives . . . .

Full disclosure: I know the author, and had an early copy to read if I would write an honest review.Based, I suspect, on his own experiences as a diamond geologist in Africa, this story of an incompetent dictator, an incompetent diamond mining company and it's incompetent field geologists, had me laughing out loud in places. In this debut novel from J M Brook, no-one is spared the sharp pen of the author. Told from various points of view he has captured the flavor of a particular part of the African picture, and had me galloping through the pages, wanting to know what happens next. A kind of Tom Sharpe novel about searching for diamonds. Good fun.

Congo Cabbage edition by J Brook Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
If you want to have a feel for the backwoods of Africa and diamond exploration, read this book. Often hilarious, sometimes poignant and even though make-believe...it really could have happened!
Being an ex De Beers man myself and knowing the subject matter John wrote about had me rolling around with laughter for much of the time. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Tom Sharpe style humour in an African context.
