Forest of the Pygmies, a 2004 novel by Chilean novelist Isabel Allende, is a threequel to City of the Beasts and Kingdom of the Golden Dragon. Kate Cold, an International Geographic reporter, is on safari in Kenya with her grandson Alex and his friend Nadia. They soon meet Angie Ninderera, a bold and seductive pilot, and Brother Fernando, a Catholic missionary who needs to reach a jungle-girt village called Ngoubé; its people are tended to by his friars. In a recent letter his friars described him their toil and the dangers they were facing due to the chiefs' disesteem for their presence. Some time ago these chiefs-King Kosongo, commandant Mbembelé and sorcerer Sombe-seized Ngoubé, toppled its queen, and subjected its people to ceaseless attrition. Kate and her friends agree to help despite Fernando's and Angie's rows.
