( ![]() Another good yarn if you can ignore some of the casual racism in the book. Thankfully that is not prevalent throughout the book and is, unfortunately, representative of the times. The book was somewhat slow to start for me and dragged out a bit longer than necessary, but when the action was on, it was on and fun. Prepare to suspend disbelief and just go along for the ride. This one's mostly about Tarzan's son, Jack, aka Korak the Killer. He too becomes a wild ape man. He also gets a girl who is way tougher and smarter than Jane. Of course, Burroughs has to go through incredible plot convolutions to make sure that he can find a wild girl of European stock in deepest Africa. No interracial romances for Burroughs! I was surprised how little I remembered of this book. The book is as much about Meriem as it is about Tarzan's son, They spend quite a bit of time separated. While this fourth in the series was full of adventure, much of it felt recycled from adventures Tarzan had himself. And while I know it is all fantasy, I somehow had an easier time believing Tarzan as a superhero but his son, not so much. Somehow the fact that Tarzan had been raised by apes gave some cause for his super powers but I couldn't buy a proper English school boy somehow acquiring all those abilities simply because he landed on African shores. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

In this sequel to The Beasts of Tarzan, the Lord of the Apes' old nemesis, Alexis Paulvitch, lures Tarzan's son, Jack, to Africa, where he plans to kill him. His plan is foiled when Jack escapes with the help of Akut, the great ape. The pair flee to the jungle where Tarzan was raised a generation earlier, and Jack establishes his own reputation among the apes as Korak the Killer. He also rescues Meriem, a beautiful young woman, from a band of Arab raiders. She turns out to be the daughter of Armand Jacot, the Prince de Cadrenet, and is therefore a fitting mate for the son of Lord Greystoke. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
