A review by jamesbullinger
El hijo de Tarzán by Edgar Rice Burroughs
5.0
The son of Tarzan is a great renovation in the series. Baby Tarzan infuses the story with new eyes and new energy, and made this book just as good as the first book.
As I read, I would think I knew where the story was headed, but then Burroughs would throw me for a loop, and go a completely different rout. I loved it.
Boroughs almost has a George R.R. Martin respect for life, in that he kills characters without warning and severely.
My one problem with this book was, what I assume, Burroughs wanted to be the gasping moment (in the first and second books things happened near the end that made me gasp). In this book, I saw the moment coming, and I don't think the character would have acted the way he did throughout the story, because of the moment. When you read it, we can talk about it.
I loved the new characters. I loved the more complex storyline. I loved the villains, multiple, not just one stupid Russian. All and all, one of my favorites.
“In the heart and soul of every son of woman lies the germ of manhood and honor.”
Excerpt From: Edgar Rice Burroughs. “Son of Tarzan.”
