Synopsis

Tarzan and the Lion Man (Edgar Rice Burroughs Authorized Library)
 
Book 17 of the Tarzan Series - Special Edition Authorized by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.
 
A great safari comes to Africa to make a movie, struggling across the veldt and through the jungle in great ten-ton trucks, equipped with all the advantages of civilization. But now it is halted, almost destroyed by the poisoned arrows of the savage Bansuto tribe. There is no way to return. Ahead lies the strange valley of diamonds, where hairy gorillas live in their town of London on the Thames, ruled by King Henry the Eighth. And behind them comes Tarzan of the Apes with the Golden Lion, seeking the man who might have been his twin brother in looks—though hardly in courage!

Goodreads review by Tharindu on June 02, 2020

"WE are all either the victims or the beneficiaries of heredity and environment." Another adventure unfolds, this time with an entirely new concept, a film crew moving to Africa. More than half of the story is about the crew's subplots, especially during the first half of the story. Another one of Ta......more

Goodreads review by Quentin on April 16, 2021

3.5 Stars This one was unusual. First, it felt like about 1/4 of the book didn't seem to have Tarzan at all. It deals with a group going into Africa to film a movie, and the first part of the book focuses on them. Then they end up in cannibal country. Then the Arab guides turn on them. Then we end up......more

Goodreads review by Glenn on March 08, 2014

Do yourself a favor and skip to about halfway through the book and start reading. The first half of the book is dull as Burroughs recycles the same plot for the umpty-umpth time. A safari full of Hollywood types gets in over their heads. The second half contains the colorful and imaginative story of......more

Goodreads review by John on June 05, 2015

Not sure why the later Tarzan books have such a mediocre reputation. This one is really fun, with lots of satiric barbs at the film business. I liked the GMO gorillas as the villains and there is no mention of Jane. Tarzan's negative view of Hollywood is timeless.......more
