Book excerpt: Allan QuatermainA spell-bounding follow-up to the legendary novel that began the Lost World Literary Genre, "King Solomon's Mines". The genre may seem identical, but the story-line builds up at it's own fast pace. The exciting and thrilling tale set in a previously unknown Africa, in some ways, is more intense than "King Solomon's Mines". It marks the end of a venturesome life of the most gallant and fearless hunter Africa has ever seen, Allan Quatermain (Even though fictional, Allan has been and will be in the hearts of so many readers across the world, sometimes it's quite hard to believe that he wasn't real). Haggard crafted this masterpiece with his fabulous narrative mesmerizing his readers with great expertise, a special attribute of him.At the beginning, Quatermain has lost his only son and longs to get back into the wilderness. Having persuaded Sir Henry Curtis, Captain John Good, and the Zulu chief Umslopogas to accompany him, they set out from the coast of east Africa into the territory of the Maasai. While staying with a Scottish missionary, they are attacked by a Maasai group, whom they overcome with heroism. They travel by canoe along an underground river to a lake in the kingdom of Zu-Vendis beyond a range of mountains. The Zu-Vendi are a warlike white race isolated from other African races. At the time of the British party's arrival, they are ruled jointly by two sisters, Nyleptha and Sorais. The priests of the Zu-Vendi religion are hostile to the explorers, but the queens protect them.Both sisters fall passionately in love with Curtis; together with Nyleptha's rejection of the nobleman Nasta, a civil war breaks out. (Sorais and Nasta's forces fight against those of Nyleptha, Curtis and Quatermain). After a battle in which Queen Nyleptha's forces are outnumbered, she is victorious but threatened by the treachery of the priests, who plan to murder her in the palace. Umslopogaas and one loyal warrior manage to save her, while killing Nasta and the chief priest Agon. Defeated and jealous, Sorais takes her own life. Nyleptha and Curtis become queen and king, and Quatermain dies from a wound suffered in the battle.
