The Ghost Kings
H. Rider Haggard
Leído por Derek Trial
Rachel Dove is a British missionary's daughter in the wilds of Africa. Her life is turned around when fellow teenager Richard Darrien rescues her from a flash flood; their common initials alone may clue the reader in that these two are another pair of Haggard's predestined lovers. Some years later, after not having seen Richard in the meantime, Rachel runs afoul of one of the author's patented lustful villains, Ishmael, a renegade Englishman who plots with the Zulu king to have Rachel for his own. The rest of the story you'll have to listen to discover. (Summary modified from Wikipedia) (14 hr 7 min)

Reseñas
The Ghost Kings
Luella
The first 3/4 of the book were great, and it really felt like it was about to end. But I didn't appreciate the addition of the 'Ghost Kings' for the last quarter. It was more typical of Haggard, though, to take a deep plunge into the supernatural for his books' finale. The reader was excellent, especially with all the Zulu names and words.
great story
