The Captain of the Djumna: A Classic Adventure of India by Grayson Larkston
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.9 MB
Overview: A mysterious message. A vanished ship. A journey into an unknown wilderness.
When a cryptic document is discovered beneath the wing of a migrating goose, a dangerous mystery begins to unfold. Somewhere beyond the familiar routes of India, a ship has disappeared-and its captain may be fighting for his life.
From the waters of the Bay of Bengal to the remote forests of the Andaman Archipelago, Emilio Salgari’s classic adventure carries its characters through maritime danger, betrayal, shipwreck, pursuit, and survival.
At the heart of the story is Captain Ali Middel, a powerful and courageous seafarer whose determination is matched by his loyal black dog, Pandu. Alongside them, Oliver and a cast of memorable characters become entangled in the schemes of the enigmatic Garrovi, whose ambitions conceal a darker secret.
Originally published in Italian in 1897, Il capitano della Djumna captures the imagination of nineteenth-century adventure fiction: storm-tossed seas, remote tropical landscapes, dangerous encounters, hidden motives, and the constant struggle between courage and treachery.
