Tarzan of the Apes had heard only rumors of the Kavuru—a race of strange white savages. But when they stole the daughter of Muviro, chief of the Waziri, the Lord of the Jungle set out in search of their legend-shrouded village on a mission of rescue — or, if need be, of revenge. He could not know that his trail ran close to that of a strange group of survivors of a crashed plane — including his beloved mate, Jane — who struggled for survival against the terrors of Africa and an even worse danger within their own party. But the stranded Europeans and the ape-man were destined for a rendezvous of blood and fire — in the dreaded temple of the kavuru.
