The Son of Tarzan is the fourth adventure in the saga of the jungle
lord and the only volume to focus on his son, Jack. Raised in
ignorance of his father's untamed nature, Jack will learn the truth
of his heritage, the exhilaration of its primal power and the
mortal danger of its primitive conflicts and ruthless foes. Edgar
Rice Burroughs turns his attention to Tarzan's son, first seen as
an infant in The Beasts of Tarzan. Fearing unjustified accusations
of murder, Jack flees deep into the African jungle, to the very
place his father, Tarzan, came of age. Like his mighty sire, Jack
adapts to his new life in the wild, finding friends in the great
apes and winning the name Korak, the killer. In rescuing Meriem, an
abducted and maltreated young girl, Jack acquires a friend and
companion in his life of exile. Their relationship is that of
siblings but, as time passes and circumstances tear them apart,
stronger emotions are revealed. The author's mastery of devious
plotting, replete with cruel twists of fate that maximize the
protagonist's danger and fear for their loved one, keeps the novel
moving at a brisk pace and qualify it as one of the most rousing
entries in the Tarzan saga. Originally published in book form in
1917, The Son of Tarzan is part of a rich legacy that includes a
series of 24 books and adaptations in film, radio, television,
comics and more. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally
typeset manuscript, this edition of The Son of Tarzan is both
modern and readable.
