Publisher's summary

The groundbreaking Edgar Rice Burroughs Universe series continues with Tarzan and the Forest of Stone, a brand-new standalone novella by critically acclaimed author Jeffrey J. Mariotte—a thrilling tale is set during the classic canon directly after the events of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Tarzan and the Lion Man!

After Tarzan departs Southern California following a visit with a dear friend, bandits mysteriously dressed as cowboys straight out of the Old West waylay his train and make off with a precious Native American artifact—taking the daughter of the relic’s owner hostage in the process. Now Tarzan must set off on foot from the wrecked and twisted ruins of the train in pursuit of the criminals, making his way across the American Southwest, a land as different from his jungle homeland as can be imagined. But even as Tarzan closes in on his prey, a ruthless killer follows close at his heels, intent on bringing an end to the legendary Lord of the Jungle once and for all.

THE FIRST UNIVERSE OF ITS KIND

A century before the term “crossover” became a buzzword in popular culture, Edgar Rice Burroughs created the first expansive, fully cohesive literary universe. Coexisting in this vast cosmos was a pantheon of immortal heroes and heroines—Tarzan of the Apes, Jane Porter, John Carter, Dejah Thoris, Carson Napier, and David Innes being only the best known among them. In Burroughs’ 80-plus novels, their epic adventures transported them to the strange and exotic worlds of Barsoom, Amtor, Pellucidar, Caspak, and Va-nah, as well as the lost civilizations of Earth and even realms beyond the farthest star. Now the Edgar Rice Burroughs Universe expands in an all-new series of canonical novels written by today’s talented authors!

A new Tarzan story

A new, and fully authorized, book detailing the further adventures of Tarzan. This book takes place right after the book Tarzan and the Lion Man. John Clayton is leaving Las Angeles after a short visit with an old author friend. After that he boards a train to take him East and eventually home. Shortly after crossing into Arizona, the train is attacked in a daring train robbery. An artifact and a beautiful girl are taken. Exit John Clayton, enter Tarzan. This time he is up against an environment completely alien to his usual haunts. Oh, and he's also up against a dozen or so gangsters (of the Al Capone) variety.

The book is relatively short but that means it's also pretty action packed. This is good old fashioned pulpy action goodness. I found myself grinning while listening. I suspect you might do that too. I cannot recommend it more.

True to character

I really enjoyed the story, the main character of Tarzan was given new situations and remained true to form. Well done.
