Edgar Rice Burroughs

Orphaned and abandoned in the depths of the African jungle, a young boy is found and raised by a loving female ape. Destined to be the king of the apes, Tarzan thrives among his adoptive family, but will he ever be able to feel at home in the wild?

 

Tarzan of the Apes is the first book in Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic pulp fiction series. Join Tarzan as he grows from a young, lost little boy into the powerful king of the jungle. As he ages and begins to realise the differences between himself and his family, Tarzan grows distant from the apes and begins to explore the jungle by himself. Discovering his parents’ old hut, he arms himself with his father’s knife and suddenly the animals of the jungle are no match for him.
 
 

But as the powerful ape man conquers his wild home, he longs to connect with someone who truly understands him. When a group of humans are marooned in his jungle, will Tarzan finally reach a place he can call home?

 

First published in October 1912 in the pulp magazine The All-Story, Tarzan of the Apes was released as a novel in 1914 and has had many successful screen adaptations. This volume is the perfect read for fans of fantasy novels who want to revisit a childhood classic.

The Tarzan Series - Three Volumes in One: Tarzan of the Apes, The Return of Tarzan, & The Beasts of Tarzan

The Beasts of Tarzan is a novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the third in his series of books about the title character Tarzan. Originally serialized in All-Story Cavalier magazine in 1914, the novel was first published in book form by A. C. McClurg in 1916.

Not long after Tarzan claims his hereditary title of Lord Greystoke and marries Jane, their infant son, Jack, is kidnapped in London by his old Russian enemies, Nikolas Rokoff and Alexis Paulvitch. Following an anonymous call about the whereabouts of Jack, Tarzan himself falls into Rokoff's trap and is imprisoned aboard a ship carrying Jack. Jane, fearing Tarzan was entering a trap, follows him and also finds herself in Rokoff's clutches aboard the ship. Rokoff sets sail to Africa, eventually exiling Tarzan on an island near the African coast and telling Tarzan that Jack will be left with a cannibal tribe and raised as one of their own.

Using his jungle skill and primal intelligence, Tarzan wins the help of Sheeta, the vicious panther, a tribe of great apes led by the intelligent Akut, and the native warrior Mugambi. With their aid, Tarzan reaches the mainland, kills Rokoff, and tracks down his wife and son. Paulvitch, the other villain, is presumed dead, but manages to escape into the jungle.

Tarzan is a fictional character, an archetypal feral child raised in the African jungles by the Mangani "great apes"; he later experiences civilization only to largely reject it and return to the wild as a heroic adventurer. Created by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Tarzan first appeared in the novel Tarzan of the Apes (magazine publication 1912, book publication 1914), and then in twenty-five sequels, three authorized books by other authors, and innumerable works in other media, authorized and not.

Tarzan is the son of a British lord and lady who were marooned on the Atlantic coast of Africa by mutineers. When Tarzan was only an infant, his mother died of natural causes and his father was killed by Kerchak, leader of the ape tribe by whom Tarzan was adopted. Tarzan is his ape name; his real English name is John Clayton, Earl Greystoke.

Tarzan has been called one of the best-known literary characters in the world. In addition to more than two dozen books by Burroughs and a handful more by authors with the blessing of Burroughs' estate, the character has appeared in films, radio, television, comic strips, and comic books.

Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) was an American author, best known for his creation of the jungle hero Tarzan and the heroic Mars adventurer John Carter, although he produced works in many genres.

The Son of Tarzan

Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar is a novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the fifth in his series of books about the title character Tarzan. It first appeared in the November and December issues of All Story Cavalier Weekly in 1916, and the first book publication was by McClurg in 1918.

In the previous novel Tarzan and Jane's son, Jack Clayton, a.k.a. Korak, had come into his own. In this novel Tarzan returns to Opar, the source of the gold where a lost colony of fabled Atlantis is located, in order to make good on some financial reverses he has recently suffered. While Atlantis itself sank beneath the waves thousands of years ago, the workers of Opar continued to mine all of the gold, which means there is a rather huge stockpile but which is now lost to the memory of the Oparians and only Tarzan knows its secret location...

Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar

Jungle Tales of Tarzan is a collection of twelve loosely connected short stories written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, comprising the sixth book in order of publication in his series about the title character Tarzan. Chronologically it is a midquel to the first Tarzan novel, Tarzan of the Apes, as the events recounted in it actually occur within Chapter 11 of that novel, between Tarzan's avenging of his ape foster mother's death and his becoming leader of his ape tribe. The stories ran monthly in Blue Book magazine, September 1916 through August 1917 before book publication in 1919.

Jungle Tales of Tarzan

Here is the continuing adventure of one of fiction's most dramatic heroes, Tarzan the ape-man. In this new episode, Tarzan has given up his jungle ways and is living contentedly on a farm with his beloved wife, Jane, as a wealthy member of British nobility. But when he returns one day from a trip to Nairobi, he finds his farm has been laid to waste by German troops—with no one left alive. In grief and rage, he casts off the veneer of civilization to become once again the primitive ape-man, ranging the country in search of those who killed his mate to mete out the vengeance of the jungle.

Never has master storyteller Edgar Rice Burroughs so skillfully shown the struggles within the breast of his ape-man hero who, through dozens of adventures and hair-breadth escapes, tracks down his enemies and triumphs in a crashing, action-packed climax.

Tarzan the Untamed

Tarzan the Terrible is a novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the eighth in his series of books about the title character Tarzan. In the previous novel, during the early days of World War I, Tarzan discovered that his wife Jane was not killed in a fire set by German troops, but was in fact alive. In this novel two months have gone by and Tarzan is continuing to search for Jane. He has tracked her to a hidden valley called Pal-ul-don, which means 'Land of Men.' In Pal-ul-don Tarzan finds a real Jurassic Park filled with dinosaurs, notably the savage Triceratops-like Gryfs, which unlike their prehistoric counterparts are predatory. The lost valley is also home to two different races of tailed human-looking creatures, the Ho-don (hairless and white skinned) and the Waz-don (hairy and black-skinned). Tarzan befriends Ta-den, a Ho-don warrior, and Om-at, the Waz-don chief of the tribe of Kor-ul-ja. In this new world he becomes a captive but so impresses his captors with his accomplishments and skills that they name him Tarzan-Jad-Guru (Tarzan the Terrible), which is the name of the novel. Edgar Rice Burroughs (September 1, 1875 - March 19, 1950) was an American author, best known for his creation of the jungle hero Tarzan and the heroic Mars adventurer John Carter, although he produced works in many genres.

Tarzan the Terrible

Tarzan the Terrible is the eighth book in the series. Now grown and married with a home and family of his own, Tarzan is desperately trying to rescue Jane from her kidnappers, when he stumbles across a seemingly prehistoric land.

Commencing just a few months after the resolution of the previous book in The Tarzan Series, Tarzan the Untamed, this pulp fiction fantasy follows the ape man as he journeys through Africa’s jungle to rescue Jane from her German kidnappers. Losing his way, Tarzan comes across a hidden valley, which is the home to many human-like tribes and carnivorous dinosaurs. Now a captive in the mysterious land of Pal-ul–don, Tarzan learns that his beloved Jane is also being held prisoner in the treacherous valley. Charged with refreshed determination, he attempts his own escape so that he can free his true love.

F. Scott Fitzgerald

From murder mysteries and pirate attacks to fantasies and sci-fi, this collection of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s short stories highlights the skilled versatility of the great American writer.

The tales featured in this short story collection were first published between 1909 and 1926, and include a seminal piece written by F. Scott Fitzgerald when he was just 13. ‘The Mystery of Raymond Mortgage’ (1909) was lost for 50 years and the early murder mystery demonstrates the influence popular writers of the time, such as Edgar Allan Poe, had on young Fitzgerald. Also featured in this collection of fantasy and horror tales are some of Fitzgerald’s most popular short stories, including ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ (1922). The haunting piece follows the protagonist from birth until death, but one thing makes Benjamin different: he’s ageing backwards. A biting social commentary, the famous story highlights Fitzgerald’s masterful writing ability.

This volume features the following short stories:

- ‘The Mystery of Raymond Mortage’
- ‘The Ordeal’
- ‘Tarquin of Cheapside’
- ‘The Offshore Pirate’
- ‘“O Russet Witch!”’
- ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’
- ‘The Adjuster’
- ‘Rags Martin-Jones and the Pr-nce of W-les’
- ‘The Dance’

Read & Co.’s Fantasy & Horror Classics imprint has republished these short stories in a brand new collection, featuring a specially-commissioned biography of F. Scott Fitzgerald alongside an introductory essay on the Lost Generation writers. This volume would make the perfect gift for fans of The Great Gatsby (1925) and Jazz Age literature.
