Meiring Fouche

Thundering Hooves

In the heart of the Sahara, a new war is brewing.

Fought not with bullets, but with a silent, creeping death.

Sahara desert, 1940–1960. Hardened soldiers of the French Foreign Legion, Teuns Stegmann and Fritz Mundt are masters of survival in the unforgiving desert. But after a brutal encounter with a mysterious new enemy, they bring back a terrifying warning. A lethal gas weapon is about to be unleashed, a poison against which they have no defense.

The architect of this impending slaughter is the fanatical Madame Bonnet. To avenge her sister, she has united the desert tribes with a weapon of mass destruction and the legendary Sabre of Doetra, a blade that guarantees victory. Outnumbered and isolated, the Legion faces total annihilation from an army that seems to rise from the sand itself.

Their only hope is a desperate, impossible plan hatched by the cunning Captain D’Arlan. It is a deadly gambit of spies, ambushes, and bluffs, where one mistake will mean a horrific end for them all.

A gripping blend of classic action and high-stakes thriller, this explosive military adventure is perfect for fans of Alistair MacLean and Wilbur Smith.
