Synopsis

An ancient map. A legendary treasure. A journey into the unknown.

When seasoned hunter and adventurer Allan Quatermain is approached by Sir Henry Curtis and Captain John Good, he is drawn into a perilous expedition across the unexplored African interior. Their purpose is not merely the pursuit of riches, but the search for Sir Henry's missing brother, who disappeared while seeking the fabled diamond mines of the biblical King Solomon.

Guided by a mysterious map and accompanied by the enigmatic Umbopa, the travellers cross scorching deserts, scale treacherous mountains, and venture into a hidden kingdom isolated from the outside world. There they become entangled in a brutal struggle for a throne, confronting a ruthless ruler, an ancient and terrifying sorceress, and secrets guarded for generations.

Beyond the conflict lies the object that has lured adventurers to their deaths: King Solomon's legendary mines, a place of unimaginable wealth from which escape may prove far more difficult than entrance.

First published in 1885, King Solomon's Mines by H. Rider Haggard is a landmark of Victorian adventure fiction and one of the foundational novels of the lost-world genre. Filled with dangerous journeys, hidden civilizations, ancient mysteries, friendship, courage, and the irresistible promise of buried treasure, this enduring classic invites readers into an extraordinary adventure beyond the boundaries of the known world.
