Before there was Indiana Jones there was Allan Quartermain: the original explorer, treasure hunter, and adventurer. The Quartermain books have captivated readers for more than a century, spawning more than a dozen movies and a host of imitators. These three novels-Marie, Child of Storm, and Finished-form the Zulu Trilogy in which the Zulu wizard, Zikali, gains his revenge on the Zulu nation and its king, Cetawayo. Here are tales of magic, revenge, and something darker and far more sinister.

Fascinating - Can't put it down
4. Februar 2009
Another wonderful work combining history and fantasy. Once you get started, you won't be able to put it down! A fascinating chronicle of the Zulu saga with memorable characters. Haggard's literary style literally transports you to the African landscapes and makes you feel like you are part and parcel of the action. If you love adventure novels, H. Rider Haggard is for you.
Seriously small print.
15. März 2012
Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Not going to bother reviewing the stories, enough's been written about them. However, this particular edition has seriously eliminated any white space on the pages. I don't mind small print, but I couldn't read more than 20 pages at a stretch before needing a break. Definitely a budget printing - if you don't like small, crowded print, stay away from this edition.
Quatermain, Zikali, and the Fall of the Zulu Nation
22. April 2011
Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
These are three of Haggard's African Novels, which are temporaly far apart in Quatermain's life, but united by being stages of the downfall of the Zulu nation and the destruction of the Chaka dynasty brought about by the wizard Zikali. If you like Haggard's african adventures, you will probably also like these, and recognize some figures, but there is a bit less exoticism and more real politics and history in them. No unknown tribes, mythical monsters or inaccessible places, only the hunter and trader Quatermain getting drawn into Zulu affairs, and Zikali working some miracular oracles and signs, and giving most calculated bad advice.
The book itself is ok, only the printing is a bit dense and small, it feels a bit unpleasant to read, but one gets used to it.
