The Ancient Allan
H. Rider Haggard
Read by Keith Salis
This is the thrilling tale as told by Allan Quatermain of events in his life, or should we say his lives? By the use of a mystical herb, he is transported to a time when he was an Egyptian hunter and warrior fighting to free Egypt from the bonds of the Easterns and to win the heart of the lovely Amada. We learn with him the importance of honor and truthfulness in all our dealings. We also see the necessity of bravery in dealing with enemy forces as well as our love interests. - Summary by Keith Salis (8 hr 56 min)

Reviews
Brett Miller
Allan Quatermain is one of my favorite characters. This serves as a nice follow up to The Ivory Child. That said, it is probably the worst of the series (excepting maybe The Three Lions).
Hidden Dragon
fun to be with a man who has a great adventure with the best of fun and interesting historical events.
SKH
