Summary

"The Mad King" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is an adventure tale where an American man named Barney Custer is thrust into a royal charade. He's mistaken for Leopold, the "mad king" of Lutha, who's just broken free after ten years locked away, stirring unease in the kingdom controlled by the power-hungry Prince Peter. Barney's life turns upside down when he saves Emma, who gets him tangled in Lutha's mess that tests his courage and forces him to face off against corrupt leaders while finding his place in a world of political plots.
