This is the book in which Tarzan gets Jane. (No, he didn't get her in the first book...only in the movie.)
Interesting love triangle, made all the more interesting by Tarzan's wild adventures, some of them believable, some of them totally unbelievable, all of them capivating, exciting,and filled with action.
You always know Tarzan, as other "good guys" of this age and genre, will win in the end, but sometimes you wonder how and if he will ever get there.
Every chapter is like reading/watching one of the old serials movie theaters used to run between shows in the double featue on Satudays.
Fun read. Good read. Go for it. You will feel like a kid again---and take it from this old man---that ain't all bad!!!!!

Conquer My Heart
Interesting tales within a story coming to an end. Tarzan gets bored in Paris and takes a job as an under cover agent to spy on a military person suspected of treason. The soldier is committing treason to cover a mistake. This spy game leads Tarzan back to the road of savage ape when a new enemy throws him overboard. Herculean strength once again saves Tarzan and he unites with Arabs who help rescue him and then a Waziri tribe that goes with him to find riches beyond a man's imagination. The city of Opar nearly costs the ape man his life, but he leaves with the knowledge of a secret exit/entrance and a high priestess that loves him. Due to a shipwreck, Tarzan discovers Jane has been taken to the deadly city of Opar. Of course he rescues her and finally they a married to live happily and with great wealth in England as Lord Greystroke. Some of the story bogs down in tedium writing. Once again I must say, this classic would not make it in the modern brick and mortar publishing world.

This book is total crap, and begs the question, how on earth did Edgar Rice Burroughs become so revered in american literature? Following The eloquently beautiful and mystifying "Tarzan of the Apes", this seems almost slapstick silly; a spoof of what should have well been left alone. The outlandish coincedences are obscene to put it mildly.
1. Tarzan meeting Jane Porter's best friend Hazel Strong upon the High Sea's
2. Tarzan being thrown overboard literally in the middle of nowhere, only to be find himself back on his native island, washed up upon the exact shore within mere feet of his beloved dwelling.
3. Tarzan arriving just in time to kill "Numa" before the lion makes dinner of a sickened, weary Clayton and frightened Jane Porter.
The list goes on, but enough.
The original "Tarzan of the Apes" will always remain one of my favorite literary pieces of all time. Burrough's "The Land That Time Forgot" was also wonderful. How he managed to stretch out the Tarzan saga through so many sequels is beyond me, but somehow I will probably find myself grueling through the next in the series while simultaneously shaking my head and wondering why.

Tarzan decides it is best if he leaves Jane, and returns to Africa. He falls in with a couple of dodgy noble types, and ends up having some Arab adventures, joins the Waziri tribe, and eventually ends up reunited with Jane in Opar.
The only problem he has is that one of the powerful women of Opar wants his body, and is not too happy Jane has prior claims.
Revelation of his position, marriage and return eventuate.

It was ordered for my daughter. When children show an interest in worthwhile reading, one doesn't hesitate to supply them with what they want.
