This is getting so tiresome. Stop separating the lovers and always returning to the jungle! Ugh. But I cant say that haven't still made a lot of progress. They're together, they have a son, some long time enemies are gone. They've come a long way in spite of all their setbacks. And Jane is a damsel in distress but she's never been a weakling and continues not to be. I like that! But seriously, these adventures are redundant (even within each book) and insane. But it reminds me of the formulaic way tv shows used to be written and I'm just glad for the progress they did make.

A young teen classic...bet it (or others by Burroughs) aren't read much any more. Too bad.

The third Tarzan book was the coolest so far, but not as great as its predecessors. Beasts of Tarzan lives up to its title is amount of awesomeness. The beasts of Tarzan are awesome, but the story wasn't as good as the first two. I'm sick of the Russian arch nemesis, and his silly plans to destroy the king of the jungle, although they somehow almost work every time. I didn't gasp at any point in this book, as I did with the first two, but it was still good enough to keep me reading the Tarzan series.

Tarzan is invincible!! Book three in this turn-of-the-century pulp adventure series is unrelenting in its delivery of dastardly deeds, sinister villains, last-minute salvations, grisly deaths, and a self-sufficient Jane taking care of her own business. Highly recommend!

A good entry into the Tarzan series. This adventure involves Tarzan being kidnapped and sent to the jungle by his nemesis Rokoff. He makes his way through the jungle with help from a pack of apes and a panther to help get revenge upon the man for taking him, his son, and Jane from their home. Like other ERB books it is an adventure novel with a new problem to solve to solve or antagonist to defeat in every chapter. A good read if you are into his books.

Tarzan goes from anticipating everything, getting the jump on everyone unless completely surrounded, etc, to being fooled and taken over and over and over again. I quit halfway through and won't continue the series.
