"For the first time ever, the Edgar Rice Burroughs Authorized Library presents the complete literary works of the Master of Adventure in handsome uniform editions, and each volume is packed with extras and rarities not to be found in any other edition. Orphaned as a babe in the African jungle, tiny John Clayton, the only child of the Lord and Lady Greystoke, is rescued by a tribe of great apes. The child, now named 'Tarzan,' grows to manhood in this savage world, among the fierce anthropoids. Aided by his keen knife and innate intelligence, Tarzan ascends to become king of the apes, able to face any peril and conquer all foes."

"Disconsolate over the loss of Jane Porter's hand to his cousin William Cecil Clayton, Tarzan renounces his title of Lord Greystoke and returns to Paris to visit his friend Paul D'Arnot who helps his grieving comrade acquire a post in the French Secret Service. After disrupting a Russian espionage operation, the ape-man is tossed overboard during his ocean passage to South Africa, and resumes his primitive life on the West Coast. He befriends the Waziri tribe and leads them on a trek to explore the lost city of Opar, a forgotten land populated by a bestial race. There, Tarzan's path will cross once again with that of Jane Porter, but can the two realize their love is destined before they meet death on the altar of the Flaming God?"

"After settling at their London estate as Lord and Lady Greystoke, Tarzan and Jane find their contentment shattered by the ape-man's former enemies, the Russain spies Nikolas Rokoff and Alexis Paulvitch. Bent on revenge, the two villains kidnap Jane and the couple's infant son Jack, fleeing to the African interior. Tarzan's savage nature reemerges as he recruits Sheeta the panther, Akut and his tribe of great apes, and the mighty warrior Mugambi to pursue the criminals up the Ugambi River into the heart of the jungle, where cannibal tribes hold sway and his desperate adversaries pursue their cruel vendetta."

"Unaware of his father's savage past, Tarzan and Jane's young son Jack becomes captivated by Ajax, the star of a trained ape act. Ajax - actually Tarzan's longtime friend Akut - has been brought to London by Tarzan's old enemy Alexis Paulvitch, who hopes to wreak vengeance on the ape-man. After killing Paulvitch in self-defense, Jack and Akut flee to Africa, where they assume the wild life of Jack's mighty sire. Growing to manhood in the jungle, the Greystoke heir earns the name Korak the Killer, and befriends Meriem, an Arab waif rescued from a life of torment in her adoptive father's village. The couple's idyllic jungle life is challenged by the arrival of evil men, whose schemes to separate the pair-and the ensuing perils-only strengthen Korak and Meriem's bond."

There, in Trohanadalmakus, Tarzan is an honored guest, until he is captured by the warriors of Veltopismakus in one of the Ant Men's wars.

Book 12 of the Tarzan® Series - Authorized by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., and Featuring Rare and Previously Unpublished Archival Materials Somewhere in the heart of Africa, a young archaeologist disappeared in the remote jungle mountains-Erich von Harben, son of an old missionary friend of Tarzan of the Apes. Now the ape-man seeks to rescue the lost scholar. The trail leads to a mysterious valley where Tarzan discovers two surviving outposts of ancient Rome, virtually unchanged by time. And there, Tarzan is thrust into the bloody gladiatorial arena, doomed to face every peril the cruel and corrupt emperor of Castra Sanguinarius can devise to ensure the ape-man's death.

David Innes was a captive in Pellucidar, the strange world within a world that lies under the Earth's crust. To rescue him, Tarzan comes into that savage, prehistoric land at the head of an expedition equipped with every modern device. But Pellucidar is not like the jungles the ape-man knows. Here are saber-toothed tigers and every savage creature from the beginning of time. Here the horizon curves back on itself and the sun hangs always in the middle of the sky. And now, for the first time, Tarzan is hopelessly lost in a land teeming with unknown, gigantic killers... where even time has no meaning!

La was in trouble. The high priestess of the Flaming God in the ancient city of Opar-forgotten outpost of Atlantis-had been betrayed by her people and locked in the eon-haunted dungeons until Tarzan came to rescue her. La still loved Tarzan, but Tarzan brought her to his people and then left her. Now, together with a strange woman of Tarzan's kind, she lies bound in the tent of an Arab slave trader, dreading her certain fate. Meanwhile, Tarzan is beset by a strange band of men who have invaded his land... led by a madman bent on evil subversion!

Evil men have come to the land of Tarzan of the Apes, looting and killing as they move. But other evil lurks in a small valley of the Ghenzi Mountains, where the last remnants of an ugly, perverted people dwell in what they call their faith-an ancient belief that came from Rome nearly 2,000 years before. Now they are wicked and many of them are insane. And now they have captured Lady Barbara Collis and mean to use her as a human sacrifice-unless Tarzan arrives in time!

When Tarzan of the Apes frees a man being tortured by cruel bandits, he is surprised to learn that the stranger comes from no race or country the ape-man knows. He is from the fabled land of Onthar, where lie two ancient cities unknown to the outside world. One is Athne, city of ivory; the other is Cathne, city of gold and evil. There great prides of trained lions are used to hunt down men and wage eternal war. And there Tarzan meets the beautiful queen Nemone, who is determined to have Tarzan as her king... or feed him to the lions!

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 fearsome 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!

As the steel-clawed Leopard Men look for victims for their savage rites, the secret cult strikes terror into the hearts of all the villagers. Only Orando of the Utengas dares to declare war on them. And with Orando goes Tarzan of the Apes-but a strangely changed Tarzan, who now believes that he is Muzimo, a spirit or demon who was Orando's ancestor. But there are traitors among Orando's people. And in the village of the Leopard Men is Kali Bwana, a young American woman who has come to Africa to find a missing man. Only Tarzan can save her...

Tarzan of the Apes had heard only rumors of the Kavuru-a strange, evil tribe said to have long reaped their human prey from among the local natives. But when they stole the daughter of Muviro, chief of the Waziri, the Lord of the Jungle sets out in search of their legend-shrouded village on a mission of rescue-or, if need be, revenge. He does not know that his trail runs close to that of a strange group of survivors of a crashed plane-including his beloved mate, Jane, who must call upon all the skills she has learned from Tarzan to keep herself and her companions alive amid the terrors of the jungle and an even worse danger lurking in their midst. But the stranded party and the ape-man are destined for a rendezvous with blood and fire-in the dreaded temple of the Kavuru.

Tarzan cared little for the fate of adventurer Brian Gregory, drawn to the legendary city of Ashair by the rumor of the Father of Diamonds, the world's hugest gem. But to the ape-man the tie of friendship is unbreakable, and Paul d'Arnot's pleas move him to agree to guide the expedition Gregory's father and sister have organized for his rescue. The enigmatic Atan Thome is also obsessed with the Father of Diamonds, and has planted agents in the Gregory safari to spy out its route and sabotage its efforts. Both parties reach their goal, remote Ashair... as prisoners of its priests, doomed to die in loathsome rites.

The half-dead American raved of an unknown city... of women warriors ruled by a malignant wizard...of a great diamond, the Gonfal, with strange hypnotic power... of a long-lost English nobleman... of the savage queen who had betrayed her duty and helped him to escape. Tarzan puts little faith into Stanley Wood's story-until he sees the power of the Gonfal draw the American in spite of himself back into the clutches of the Amazons of Kaji. Then it is that the ape-man becomes once more the implacable hunter-for though he cares nothing for diamonds or lost civilizations, no one may be allowed to harm a man the Lord of the Jungle has taken under his protection.

When an American bomber crashes in the jungles of enemy-held Sumatra, the survivors face the perils of a completely unknown world... and the RAF colonel who flew with them as observer only seems to compound their danger by going mad-stripping to a loincloth and throwing away his weapons except for his knife. But for Colonel John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, the hazards of wild beasts and a remorseless enemy are a familiar and joyously accepted challenge-a chance to return to his true identity of Tarzan of the Apes. Gathering a motley crew of allies of many nations, Tarzan works a terrible vengeance on the occupying Japanese and leads an epic trek to the coast-to a final ocean rendezvous with enemies human and inhuman.

The drums boom forth an incredible message from tribe to tribe-Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle, has become an enemy to all, stealing and enslaving their women... as well as the daughter of an English millionaire, who offers a princely reward for her recapture and Tarzan's death. Certainly her captor told Sandra Pickerall that he was Tarzan... but he also told her he was God... Tarzan follows their trail with one thought in mind-to pursue and destroy the man who has stolen his name and made it infamous in the jungle world he loves.

Stranded on an uncharted Pacific island, Tarzan is forced to take command of an ill-sorted party-English aristocrats, a Dutch officer, a woman of doubtful reputation-to ensure their safety from a band of mutineers led by a madman. A lost colony of Mayans, avid for potential victims for their barbarous human sacrifices, only add to their danger. But the Lord of the Jungle has unexpected allies... Cast away with his band is a shipment of African animals unknown to the island, striking terror in the hearts of the Mayans and mutineers alike-but old friends and familiar antagonists to the man brought up among them: Tarzan of the Apes. This special Edgar Rice Burroughs Authorized Library edition includes the first publication anywhere of "Murder in the Jungle," the original version of "Tarzan and the Jungle Murders," taken directly from Edgar Rice Burroughs' typescript before the story was heavily rewritten by a pulp magazine editor.
