A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

As THE BEASTS OF TARZAN begins, Tarzan -- as Lord Greystoke -- is settled in civilized London. But two of his enemies, Nikolas Rokoff and henchman Alexis Paulvitch, are on his trail. The pair abducts Jane -- and Tarzan's son, Jack. Tarzan himself is stranded on a desert island, but with the help of Sheeta the panther and Akut the great ape he makes it back to the mainland. There he meets Mugambi, the giant chief of the Wagambi tribe, who becomes Tarzan's lifelong friend and ally. The group heads into the deep jungle after the kidnappers -- and when Tarzan finds them he lets the beast inside him wreck his vengeance. There's a beautiful irony, here -- Tarzan has come from the jungle into civilization, and his son must go from civilization to the jungle. Where Tarzan grew up without human guidance or moral direction, he has become an honorable man -- chivalrous, almost noble; a genuinely good man. And now his son, raised in civilization, must now walk a similar path. . . .

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Tarzan is adjusting to his new life as Lord Greystoke and his new life with his wife Jane and son Jack. But when Jack is kidnapped, Tarzan receives an anonymous tip about his son's location, but Jane fears that Tarzan is walking into a trap. Soon finding himself marooned on a island, Tarzan must return to the jungle, to return to a life he had left behind, if he is to see his son again.

Can Tarzan reawaken the ape within? Will Tarzan find his son? Will the villains of his past return to haunt his present?
