Tarzan and the Lion Man

"Tarzan and the Lion Man" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is an early 1900s tale that plunges readers back into the wild world of Tarzan, the famed Lord of the Jungle, as he confronts the bewildering arrival of a man who looks exactly like him. Weaving together adventure and humor, the novel grapples with what it means to survive, the search for who we are, and the ridiculousness of Hollywood. It kicks off with Tarzan witnessing a strange sight: painted warriors performing a ritual around a captive that bears an uncanny resemblance to himself while, miles away, a Hollywood film executive named Mr. Milton Smith plans to film an authentic jungle movie completely clueless about the dangers that await him. The stage is set for a thrilling, funny story about the making of a movie in the jungle.
