About this ebook
The tale opens with Quatermain’s written note and his yearning to commune with the dead, as a talisman and strange messengers set fate in motion toward the northern unknown. Umslopogaas of the Axe joins him, and through lion combat, solemn oaths, pursuit, swamp peril, and sudden attack, the journey grows ever more dangerous. Inez brings both warmth and tension, while the sea-cow hunt and passage through the mountain wall test the resolve of the company. Blood and vows intertwine as they draw near the realm whispered of as that of the White Witch.
