Meer over het boek

Marooned on a mysterious South Sea island, three Englishmen awaken the powerful god Oro and his striking daughter, who resembles the hero's deceased wife. This encounter intertwines themes of reincarnation and spirit travel, as they also revive residents of an ancient Atlantean civilization. The narrative explores occult powers, teleportation, and the quest for the elixir of life, all set against a backdrop of rich mythic depth. This work is among the final novels by the author of King Solomon's Mines.
