Synopsis

When fate deals a devastating blow to Tarzan and Jane’s fortunes, the ape-man must once again refill their coffers from the legendary treasure vaults of Opar, forgotten outpost of lost Atlantis. There awaits the high priestess La, ready to sacrifice Tarzan upon the altar of the Flaming God for having spurned her love, even while the traitorous, half-bestial high priest of Opar schemes to usurp her rule.
Meanwhile, Jane faces her own troubles when she falls victim to the machinations of disgraced Belgian officer Lieutenant Werper and a band of ivory and slave traders. But when an earthquake strikes down Tarzan and leaves him with only the memory of his youth as an ape, how will he unravel the nefarious plot that imperils Jane’s life and recover the stolen jewels of Opar?

Goodreads review by Joseph on December 31, 2020

I think a case could be made that this is the first of the Tarzan series novels. Obviously it's not the first Tarzan novel -- it has that #5 right there in the title -- but the first 2-3 books were the extended origin story, #4 was a generational shift (and, for the record, at no point whatsoever in......more

Goodreads review by Seth on October 20, 2012

This is it. This is where the Tarzan series really gets going, for me. I guess for some Graystoke purists, this is probably the demise of Tarzan as a "serious work" because it basically becomes nonsense dime novel fiction from this point on, but to me, that's ERB at his best. This book has everything......more

You might not know that apes are masters of disguise. I didn’t believe it either, but this phenomenon is proven to be true in the pages of this book. You see, ape friends of Tarzan’s spend some time clothed in their Arab adversaries’ clothing so they can sneak in and out of the Arab camp. Now maybe......more
