Ken Kamoche displays an impressive mastery of the story telling. The stories set in places as diverse as China and Africa and Britain, all show a consistency in their sympathetic grasp of human nature. The characters are so true, their dilemmas so so touching that one is drawn effortlessly into their world.
Ken Kamoche’s first novel, TRUE WARRIORS, was published in 2011 by Master Publishing, Kenya.
“Chege grows up struggling for acceptance and respect from his father, a former freedom fighter who never reaped the fruits of independence. Chege takes up the burden of freeing his brother from jail and getting back the family’s land. He, however, gets a government scholarship to study abroad and appears to have abandoned his family and his girlfriend.
Problems arise when funding dries up, and he finds himself framed in a financial scandal back home. Forced to return and face his fears, Chege discovers that he too must become a ‘warrior’, in keeping with the family tradition.”
