Son of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs comes within a micrometer of edging out Tarzan of the Apes for top book in the series, and that is not something I say lightly. If you don’t know by now that I adore Tarzan, you’re either new to my orbit (welcome!) or…
Beasts of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs picks up the story about a year after the end of Return of Tarzan and features the same villains that plagued the first book. It’s a solid, but imperfect, continuation of the series, and worth reading. This is the first Tarzan book where…
Just in case this is the first Tarzan review of mine you’ve come across, let me warn you, I am an unapologetic fan of the man and his stories. Tarzan is, for me, what Star Trek or Star Wars or [insert culturally-relevant modern reference here] is to a mega fan….
by Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan and the Madman And so I face the final curtain… It has been a long, sometimes bumpy, road from Tarzan of the Apes to Tarzan and the Madman. Along the way, especially around the Tarzan and the Ant Men mark, I wondered if I would…
Tarzan and the Tarzan Twins with Jad-bal-ja the Golden Lion The title is almost longer than the story, and a little more interesting, to be honest. I wasn’t a big fan of The Tarzan Twins so I didn’t have big hopes for the sequel, which turned out to be just…
The Tarzan Twins I’m about 90% sure I never read this one and I wasn’t missing much. This was written just a few years before the appearance of the first comic book sidekick, Robin the Boy Wonder, and it was probably meant to serve the same purpose. Sidekicks like Robin…
Tarzan and the Foreign Legion I was expecting desert and Frenchmen but what I got was a bunch of Americans, a Dutch girl, and a smattering of others, and Tarzan. I got Tarzan so no complaints. Still, this takes place in Sumatra and it puts Tarzan into a new jungle…
Tarzan and the Forbidden City An old friend returns and I was so excited to see him. If you’ve read the book that started all of this – and if you haven’t, why haven’t you – then you will recognize Lieutenant Paul d’Arnot as the brave Frenchman that Tarzan rescued…
Tarzan the Magnificent This felt oddly disjointed to me until I found out that it was originally published as two separate stories and then it all made sense. Well, maybe I wouldn’t go that far but at least I understood why it felt like two halves of a whole. The…
Tarzan and the Castaways Based on other reviews I’ve read of this book, part of it may have been dropped from the Kindle version I own. I will review what I read and check the print copy later to see if I did, indeed, miss something. I can’t miss any…
