Follow legendary hunter and reluctant hero Allan Quatermain as he leads two of the most daring expeditions in adventure literature. In King Solomon’s Mines , Quatermain joins Sir Henry Curtis and Captain Good in a deadly quest across the African wilderness to find a lost brother—and the mythical diamond mines hidden in the mountains of a forgotten kingdom. Facing blistering deserts, bloodthirsty kings, and ancient traps, they risk everything for truth and treasure. In the sequel, Allan Quatermain , the story turns inward. Grieving the death of his son, Quatermain sets out once more, driven not by gold but by meaning. His journey leads to Zu-Vendis , a hidden empire ruled by two rival queens whose love and hatred will test his courage and loyalty. Together, these two classic novels blend danger, wonder, and moral reckoning in tales that shaped the lost-world genre and cemented Quatermain’s place as one of fiction’s greatest adventurers.
