Synopsis

The first novel featuring one of the greatest adventure heroes of all time!

TARZAN-orphaned by the jungle that saves him, adopted and raised by an ape mother but shunned by the tribe, a young boy grows into what he believes is a powerful ape. As he explores farther and farther from his home, this fearless young man discovers he can do more than he ever thought possible—until one day he is not fast enough, and his ape mother is killed. Orphaned again, he swears revenge.

Fiercely independent, incredibly wild, highly intelligent, Tarzan does the seemingly impossible and brings the jungle under his heel.

As King of the Apes, Tarzan has it all—until a shipwreck brings Jane Porter to the edge of his jungle, and he wonders if he has everything after all.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Born in September of 1875 in Illinois, Edgar Rice Burroughs was an impressive author who left a significant legacy that still inspires authors to this day. He wrote widely, authoring at least 100 stories between 1911 and his death in 1950, in Encino, California after two divorces and raising three children. Burroughs wrote science fiction, fantasy, adventure, historical, westerns, and just about anything he could sell. His books inspired many films and television shows, breaking records and becoming best sellers in numerous categories. He incorporated himself before other authors even considered it, allowing him to protect his ideas even as Tarzan and his other characters became some of the most popular of the twentieth century, which continue to inspire many remakes. Burroughs made many comic strips of his characters, maintaining his popularity in many mediums. He also published with pulp magazines and serialized works, maintaining momentum and interest from many fans even as he alternated between different projects. Before becoming an author, Burroughs tried a bit of everything, everywhere, with differing levels of success, moving back and forth across the United States with his family, eventually settling for a while in what would later be known as Tarzana, CA. Burroughs was inducted into the Science Fiction Hall of Fame in 2003.
