“When Children of Kaywana first appeared in Ace Books it became an immediate best-seller.  Kaywana Stock is the second novel in the Kaywana trilogy.  It is a story of early colonial life in the West Indies, the tyranny of master over slave, the clash of colour and temperament, the easy-going existence of the white planters in a tropical climate, productive of hot passion and lazy sensuality.  This panoramic picture of a society in the making, of human nature in the raw, of oppression and terrifying cruelty, of the relations of men and women in an uncivilized milieu is drawn with tremendous strength and vitality”
