Book 22 of the Tarzan\u00ae Series \u2013 Authorized by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., and Featuring Rare and Previously Unpublished Archival Materials<\/h3>\n

When an American bomber crashes in the jungles of enemy-held Sumatra, the survivors face the perils of a completely unknown world…and the RAF colonel who flew with them as observer only seems to compound their danger by going mad\u2014stripping to a loincloth and throwing away his weapons except for his knife. But for Colonel John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, the hazards of wild beasts and a remorseless enemy are a familiar and joyously accepted challenge\u2014a chance to return to his true identity of Tarzan of the Apes. Gathering a motley crew of allies of many nations, Tarzan works a terrible vengeance on the occupying Japanese and leads an epic trek to the coast\u2014to a final ocean rendezvous with enemies human and inhuman.<\/p>\n

Edgar Rice Burroughs: Master of Adventure<\/h3>\n

The creator of the immortal characters Tarzan of the Apes and John Carter of Mars, Edgar Rice Burroughs is one of the world\u2019s most popular authors. His timeless tales of heroes and heroines transport readers from the jungles of Africa and the dead sea bottoms of Barsoom to the miles-high forests of Amtor and the savage inner world of Pellucidar, and even to alien civilizations beyond the farthest star. Mr. Burroughs\u2019 books are estimated to have sold hundreds of millions of copies, and they have spawned 60 films and 250 television episodes.<\/p>\n

Joe Jusko: Visionary Artist<\/h3>\n

Joe Jusko is among today\u2019s most acclaimed fantasy, pin-up, and comic artists. His work has been featured on book and comic posters, and on the much-praised 1992 Marvel Masterpieces trading cards. Jusko is a recipient of myriad industry honors, including a Certificate of Merit from the Society of Illustrators and a 2001 Chesley Award nomination. Fittingly, he was born on September 1, sharing his birthday with Edgar Rice Burroughs. Jusko\u2019s longtime love of Burroughs\u2019 work continues to inspire him in illustrating the Authorized Library and bringing the author\u2019s creative vision to life.<\/p>\n
