Summary Book Blurb Derby, Conn: Gold Star Books
| A fabulous emerald was called the "Light of the Night," and many men were willing to risk their lives to get it. In search of the jewel are Wong Feng and his hired cut-throat, Magra Taask. Before Tarzan defeats this vicious pair, he is captured by King Nanda and Queen Nirva of Ondo and sentenced to fight lions in the arena. Surviving, he leads his Waziris and giant apes in the great battle between lost cities. | |
