Written in 1887, Allan Quatermain is the sequel to the adventure novel King Solomon's Mines. In the sequel the major characters (Allan Quatermain, Sir Henry Curtis, and Captain Good) of the previous book are reunited and, eager for adventure, begin another expedition in search of a legendary lost civilization deep in Africa; the three Englishmen are joined by the Zulu warrior Umslopogaas. The adventurers find their lost civilization but only after an arduous, exciting, and dangerous journey. Of course, once the explorers arrive in the lost civilization, the adventure and drama continue to the very end. As in King Solomon's Mines the story is narrated by hunter, explorer, and adventurer Allan Quatermain; he is a little more philosophical and reflective in his narrative in this book. I did like this book a great deal as it is a good balance of adventure and light romance. One does not have to read King Solomon's Mines to understand Allan Quatermain but readers will get a lot more out of the sequel if they have read the previous book. In sum, Allan Quatermain is a good sequel to a good book.
