Description
The story of the ape man, Tarzan, is fearless, fantastical, and a classic read. American author Edgar Rice Burroughs found his fame in writing of Tarzan’s adventures of being raised by apes until his eventual encounters with civilized humans. Along with Tarzan, Burroughs wrote science fiction and fantasy stories that influenced the work of literary geniuses like Rudyard Kipling and James Edwin Gunn. Scholars and readers alike note the critical themes in his work, such as racial superiority, escapism, and the debate on nature versus nurture.
The Beasts of Tarzan is Burroughs’ third novel in the series and begins a year after the previous installment. By now, Tarzan, known as Lord Greystoke, and Jane have had a son named Jack and are settled in civilized London. Their seemingly perfect life is interrupted, however, by Tarzan’s enemies reappearing. Nikolas Rokoff and his henchman trap Tarzan on a jungle island while they kidnap Jane and Jack. Tarzan, once again, must use his jungle skills to win over new allies who will help him find his family. With colorful characters such as Sheeta the panther and Akut the great ape, this novel in the Tarzan series is a bright, but thrilling dream.
The Beasts of Tarzan combines Burroughs’ love of the adventure genre along with his masterful fantasy creations to make a novel that will leave readers immersed.
