Allan Quartermain

Hi. This blog is on Allan Quartermain. Allan Quartermain is a adventurer.






Dad suggested it. I read it on the kindle app on my iPad. Dad said it was like Indiana Jones. I read the first book. It was called King Solomon's Mines.


Allan Quartermain met sir Henry and Good. And Sir Henry mentioned the quest because his brother was lost their. Allan had a map but never believed it. So they set off into the desert. With a servant named Umpoba.



Soon though they were dying of thirst, starvation, and the cold in the mountain. Eventually they made it to a lost land and savages were there. They almost killed them. But they convinced them that they were gods from the stars. So then they had to unseat the cruel king and escape with jewels from Solomon's mines.



Allan Quartermain was a good book. It was a little slow in the beginning but it got more intense. I thought that it was pretty good but not as good as Tarzan or Warlord of Mars. I thought he was like John Carter in the sense that they didn't see themselves as heroes. It made a whole new genre. Bye!
