Tarzan and the Foreign Legion (Edgar Rice Burroughs Authorized Library)

Book 22 of the Tarzan Series—Special Edition Authorized by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.

When an American bomber crashes in the jungles of enemy-held Sumatra, the survivors face the perils of a completely unknown world…and the RAF colonel who flew with them as observer only seems to compound their danger by going mad—stripping to a loincloth and throwing away his weapons except for his knife. But for Colonel John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, the hazards of wild beasts and a remorseless enemy are a familiar and joyously accepted challenge—a chance to return to his true identity of Tarzan of the Apes. Gathering a motley crew of allies of many nations, Tarzan works a terrible vengeance on the occupying Japanese and leads an epic trek to the coast—to a final ocean rendezvous with enemies human and inhuman.

Tarzan and the Castaways Written by: Edgar Rice Burroughs
All stars
Most relevant
Tarzan and the Foreign Legion by Edgar Rice Burroughs is book no 22 in the original series and one of the best.

We see Tarzan as a British colonel on a scouting mission with some American soldiers over Japanese occupied Sumatra during WW2 as their plane is shot down and the survivors along with Tarzan try to escape the island.

ERB does a great job balancing the sense of adventure and action in a Tarzan story with the seriousness and gritty tone of a war story.

This audiobook version published by ERB Inc has good narration by Ben Dooley and an informative afterword. However the publisher censored some offensive words describing the Japanese soldiers who are the villains of the story claiming it as done gently.

I would recommend reading an online copy of the story for uncensored version and make your own decision on it. The 5 stars is for the quality of the story and narration but this censorship of old works is not encouraging.

Tarzan fights in WW2!
