The Beasts of Tarzan
Edgar Rice Burroughs
Read by James Christopher
This is the third of Burrough's Tarzan novels. Originally serialized in All-Story Cavalier magazine in 1914, the novel was first published in book form by
A. C. McClurg in 1916.
In the previous novel Tarzan reclaimed his name and title as John Clayton, Lord Greystoke. In this novel he finds that proper society is just as vicious as the jungle when greedy men threaten him and his new family. Jane and her infant son Jack are kidnapped by Tarzan's enemies, Nikolas Rokoff and Alexis Paulvitch, who then trap Tarzan himself and attempt to exile him forever on a primitive island, bereft of all those dear to him. There, however, Tarzan gains new allies in the panther Sheeta and the ape Akut, together with Akut's band. (Summary by Wikipedia) (5 hr 19 min)

great book good reader

Such a good book and the reader as well. A little buzzing in the background at first but it seemed to go away.

well read, but the microphone seemed to have been acting up. the voice would be clear and then echo
Good continuation

I did not realize how many novels were in the Tarzan series, I think this will be the last I read though. It's a good continuation and has suspense and action, but it just isn't holding my interest. For anyone that read the first two and really enjoyed them, they should continue with this one. It's short and very good. The reader did a good job, but sometimes the voice was muffled and other times more clear. Overall a good listen

Wasn't fond of the same old bad guy, but loved the return to the jungle and the introduction of Cheetah, in a VERY unexpected form.
Good

its ok but its a little too fast and the difference in the different character voices is not very prominent

I like the reader's voice but the sound quality is poor and unpredictable

I had not realized there were so many books in the series, and am pleased to find it out. I was not a huge fan of the different movies and TV etc so listened to the first book without much anticipation. was I wrong I have enjoyed the first 3 books very much, the stories are well written and the ones this far also well read. on to book 4 i go!
