Maiwa's Revenge

After a day's worth of shooting at his estate, legendary hunter Allan Quatermain settles down, lights a pipe, and tells his companions of a journey he undertook in the wilds of Africa. On expedition, Quatermain, while searching for ivory, meets Maiwa, a runaway African princess who is intent on avenging her child. She also carries a desperate note from an old friend, once thought dead. Braving buffalo, rhinos, elephants, and rivaling tribes, Quatermain finds himself in the middle of a plot to wage war on the notorious African chief Wambe. Perfect for readers who crave classic adventure tales filled with exotic locales and heart-pounding action! Haggard's masterful storytelling combines the thrill of African safari adventures with compelling characters driven by honor and revenge. This timeless tale of friendship, danger, and justice will keep you riveted from the first shot fired to the final confrontation.
