H. Rider Haggard 
A Tale of Three Lions [EPUB ebook] 

Set in Africa the novel tells the story of three lions and the humans who encounter them. The first lion is called ‘Umslopogaas’ and is a fierce warrior who is feared by all who know him. He is also known as the ‘Lion of the Zulu’ and is said to have killed more lions than anyone else in Africa. He is a skilled hunter and fighter, and his reputation is such that even the mighty king of the Zulus, Cetewayo, fears him. ‘A Tale of Three Lions’ is a thrilling adventure story that explores themes of bravery, loyalty, and the consequences of our actions. It is also a vivid portrayal of life in Africa during the late 19th century, and Haggard’s detailed descriptions of the African landscape and its wildlife are a testament to his love and respect for the continent.
