Synopsis

Two of Haggard's most memorable characters come face to face in this epic fantasy adventure, the third book in the She sequence

Wanting to learn if he can communicate with deceased loved ones, adventurer Allan Quartermain seeks a meeting with the feared Zulu witch-doctor Zikali. Zikali tells Allan he must seek out a great white sorceress who rules a hidden kingdom far to the north, and he charges Allan to take a message to her. So begins Allan's treacherous journey into unknown and dangerous country where he encounters wild animals and cannibals, narrowly escaping death. Upon reaching the lost kingdom of Kôr Allan is summoned to meet Ayesha who seeks Allan's help. A rebel fraction lead by the dreaded Rezu is trying to overthrow Ayesha and she asks Allan to lead the army of Kôr against attack. He reluctantly agrees as only once he has completed his task will Ayesha teach him the terrifying trick to travel to the spiritual realm.
