About this audiobook
The Return of Tarzan is the second Tarzan novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Tarzan is 22 years old. The ape man, feeling rootless in the wake of his noble sacrifice of his prospects of wedding Jane Porter, leaves America for Europe to visit his friend Paul d'Arnot. On the ship he becomes involved in the affairs of Countess Olga de Coude, her husband, Count Raoul de Coude, and two shady characters attempting to prey on them, Nikolas Rokoff and his henchman Alexis Paulvitch. Rokoff, it turns out, is the countess' brother. Tarzan thwarts the villains' scheme, making them his deadly enemies. After a couple of twists—joining the French intelligence service, swimming for his life in the sea—Tarzan ends up in his "home" jungle, has several adventures—being captured and almost sacrificed, finding treasures, etc.—until he has to save Jane from a local tribe. She broke her engagement earlier, so Tarzan can marry her.
Edgar Rice Burroughs
Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) had various jobs before getting his first fiction published at the age of 37. He established himself with wildly imaginative, swashbuckling romances about Tarzan of the Apes, John Carter of Mars and other heroes, all at large in exotic environments of perpetual adventure. Tarzan was particularly successful, appearing in silent film as early as 1918 and making the author famous. Burroughs wrote science fiction, westerns and historical adventure, all charged with his propulsive prose and often startling inventiveness. Although he claimed he sought only to provide entertainment, his work has been credited as inspirational by many authors and scientists.
