‘Tarzan and the Lion Man, ‘ the seventeenth book in the Tarzan series by Edgar Rice Burroughs, was first published in 1934. This novel presents a unique blend of adventure, fantasy, and satire. The story begins with a Hollywood film crew venturing into the African jungle to shoot a Tarzan movie, only to encounter the real Tarzan. The plot thickens with the introduction of a mysterious figure known as the Lion Man, who bears a striking resemblance to Tarzan.
As the narrative unfolds, Tarzan finds himself embroiled in a series of challenges and intrigues involving the film crew, various jungle inhabitants, and the enigmatic Lion Man.
