An enduring adventure tale which I have read and reread over the years since first picking it up as a teenager. Even though it takes a while for the heroes to reach the realm of the mysterious all powerful Ayesha, it never flags in interest or entertainment. It may be a little antique in its author's views on race relations, but if you can overlook that as a product of the time, the story will sweep you along into a world people by interesting characters who find themselves involved in fantastic happenings. Recommended for young and not-so-young readers.
