The Return Of Tarzan, by Edgar Rice Burroughs - Akasha Classics, AkashaPublishing.Com - The second novel in the Tarzan series opens with the aristocratic ape man aboard an ocean liner en route from New York to Europe, on which he has encounters with Russian spies, French counts, and beautiful women. He had decided not to claim his title and estates from his cousin. He is thrown overboard the cruise liner, ending up back in his native African jungle. It was there he first heard of Opar, the city of gold, remnant of the fabled Atlantis and he now sets off to search for it. Unheeding of the dangers, Tarzan leads a band of savage warriors toward the ancient crypts and the more ancient evil of Opar, reigned over by La, high priestess of the Flaming God. All the while not knowing that his almost-fi ancée Jane is suffering the harsh effects of stranded life in the merciless jungle only miles away. "Crowded with impossibilities as the tale is, Mr. Burroughs has told it so well, and has so succeeded in carrying his readers with him, that there are few who will not look forward eagerly to the promised sequel". --New York Times review, May 1915

The New Revelation, by Arthur Conan Doyle - Akasha Classics, AkashaPublishing.Com - The (dis)connection between psychological (or scientific) and psychic mind is a subject that has baffled man for centuries.

Scottish surgeon and political activist Sir Arthur Conan Doyle turned his passions into stories and novels, producing fiction and nonfiction works sometimes controversial (The Great Boer War, 1900), sometimes fanciful (The Coming of the Fairies, 1922), and sometimes legendary (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1892).
