Second in the series. Haggard wrote the book over his summer holiday in 1885 immediately after King Solomon's Mines. It was first serialized in Longman's Magazine before being published.

The sequel to King Solomon's Mines, and it is an even better crafted adventure story. Yes Rider Haggard's writing and outlook is dated, bigoted and Anglophile, but it is exciting and fun.
I think this one is even better than the first.
