Tarzan ventures north into the unmapped backlands of Abyssinia and is drawn into a lost valley where two rival cities have survived in isolation for centuries. In Cathne, the city of gold, he becomes the prisoner, champion and obsession of Queen Nemone, a ruler as beautiful as she is unstable, whose court keeps lions as hunting beasts and gods.
One of the liveliest of the later Tarzan books, first published in 1933, with the period’s colonial view of Africa. Download the free EPUB.
