Summary — Book Blurb New York: Del Ray (Ballantine)
|
Russian exile Nikolas Rokoff has stolen an ancient crystal
amulet—the key to terrifying power. It can be used to conquer the
very depths of time and space, but if Rokoff releases its supernatural
forces, the gem will rip apart the fabric of reality. He will throw open
the gates to Pellucidar—the prehistoric land at the Earth's core.
In doing so, he will unleash the grotesque, reptilian armies of the
Mahars. Only Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle, can hope to stop the flood of creatures whose one goal is bloodthirsty conquest. But even Tarzan may fall prey to the talons of Mora, the ruthless and seductive Queen of the Mahars. | |
