Someone from our group has volunteered to GM Shadowrun again, and he wants
the campaign to take place in Africa. I have a fairly complete library of
Shadowrun books, but this library is so big that I can't remember exactly
which book mentions what places.

So, which SR books have information on Africa?

Target: Smuggler Havens is the only one I can think of.

Off-hand, those are the only two. I think Wake of the Comet has some as
well, too.

There *so* needs to be a book (Shadows of Africa?) to compile/update everything.
