Summary
Tarzan of the Apes
Edgar Rice Burroughs
Set amid the vibrant colors and sounds of the African jungle, this classic work—rich in suspense and action—has beckoned generations of readers toward a glorious journey of pure adventure. This is the story of the ape-man Tarzan and how he learns the secrets of the jungle to survive. When his paradise is invaded by white men, Tarzan’s life changes, for in this group is Jane, the first white woman he has ever seen. Speaking directly to our childhood fantasies, Tarzan of the Apes takes us to that faraway place in our minds where dreams prevail—where we too can be masters of our environment.
The Prisoner of Zenda
Anthony Hope
A perilous impersonation, a forbidden romance, a bold rescue, and a battle to the death against a malevolent foe in his ancient lair—these form the key elements in one of the greatest and most irresistible novels of adventure ever written. In the mythical kingdom of Ruritania, Rudolf Rassendyll is called upon to take the place of the abducted heir to the throne—and he soon finds himself engaged to a beautiful princess whom he can love only while living a lie. Between its vivid emotion and unflagging action, The Prisoner of Zenda is the ultimate reading experience for those who seek to escape into a world of danger, daring, and noble deeds.
