Tarzan had been betrayed. Drugged and helpless, he was delivered into the hands of the dreadful priests of Opar, last bastion of ancient Atlantis. La, High Priestess of the Flaming God, had saved him once again, driven by her hopeless love for the ape-man. But now she was betrayed and threatened by her people.

La, High Priestess of the Flaming God, had saved him once again, driven by her hopeless love for the ape-man. But now she was betrayed and threatened by her people. To save her, Tarzan fled with her into the legendary Valley of Diamonds, while Jad-bal-ja, his faithful golden lion, followed. Ahead lay a land where savage gorillas ruled over servile men. And behind, Estaban Miranda—who looked exactly like Tarzan—plotted further treachery.

There's like a new lost city every volume. However, in a way that's very interesting, as when when these books were written in the early twentieth century, lost cities in Africa were probably a very possible thing. We have another plotline where Tarzan's former maid is leading an expedition of shady Europeans through Africa in order to loot the fabled city of Opar, where Tarzan gets his gold.
She had overhead him talking about it while in his employ. She even hires an actor who looks very similar to Tarzan to impersonate him in case they run into trouble with the African natives. This becomes a pivotal plot point, as even people close to Tarzan have issues telling the true Tarzan from the imposter. This was an action packed novel, but it seems like the plots are all the same now. Tarzan finds a lost city inhabited by a lost tribe, he has to find his way through the city to either rescue someone or escape, there's a big battle, etc.
That being said, it's still entertaining. If you like adventure novels, Tarzan is always an enjoyable read. Tarzan, in his spare time, takes up the task of taming and training an orphaned lion.
Having a lion on one's side can be a very useful thing to one who frequently, to the dismay of his wife, traverses the treacherous jungles of Africa. Tarzan has come to the realization he's going to need more money, if he's to keep his estates and continue to live the mostly civilized life he's become accustomed to.
So it's back to Opar to once again raid its spectacular treasure vaults. Of course, this is a Ta Tarzan, in his spare time, takes up the task of taming and training an orphaned lion.

So it's back to Opar to once again raid its spectacular treasure vaults. Of course, this is a Tarzan story and things seldom work out as planned. Doppelgangers, lost civilizations, and a former lady's maid all have it out for him this time. Another page turning adventure from the mind of Burroughs.
It could be said, if you're that dreary cup half empty kind of chap, that if you've read one of his books, you've read all of his books. Luckily, for me, I find his one book a highly enjoyable one and very much worth a reread, even if it doesn’t quite hit the heights of the previous trip through. Tarzan adopts a wounded lion, or the lion adopts Tarzan, depending on your point of view. This turns out to be a good move, after he his captured, drugged and sent to the lost city of Opar to be a sacrifice.

It's the usual Tarzan story, but the relationship between Tarzan and the lion is well down, Opar is a cool locale, and the frustrate Tarzan adopts a wounded lion, or the lion adopts Tarzan, depending on your point of view.

It's the usual Tarzan story, but the relationship between Tarzan and the lion is well down, Opar is a cool locale, and the frustrated love La has for Tarzan is a nice touch that is handled much better than it could have been and there is of course a ton of action. I always liked that women are always throwing themselves at Tarzan and he is always like 'Sorry, I'm married'.
Of course, he says it in a cooler, Tarzan way, but he and Jane were one of the rare happily married literary couples, despite all the kidnappings. Good clean adventure, taking into account the racist slant of Euro-society in the author's day. Extreme danger over which the hero prevails.
Clear division between the good guys and the bad guys, and they are not divided by color. All of the bad guys are not Africans, in fact the most evil of the bad guys are European. And the good guys come in all hues. Burroughs has a message in here, 'the good guys always win.' Maybe not always true in real life, but fun to read about.

Maybe not always true in real life, but fun to read about. Tarzan and his family return to Africa to rebuild their devastated estate, but find his friends and allies the Waziri have already started the rebuilding process. Tarzan finds and adopts an orphaned lion cub and trains him as a feline military animal. Tarzan goes off to get some gold from the lost Atlantean enclave in Africa. While he is gone his treacherous former maid, along with some very unsavory henchmen, attempts to do the same thing, based upon information she acquired while working in the Greystoke household.
Lots of battle action as their paths cross. Nothing really too gory by today's standards and of couse no sex. Good young male reading. Shame on Jane and Korak for not believing Tarzan could raise a lion cub to be tame! I have no idea where Meriem, Korak's wife, was, maybe in London.
Tarzan intends to go to Opar again and, as before, gets in trouble. One of his former servants is also trying to get gold from Opar, with a man who looks exactly like Tarzan (and causes Jane some temporary heartbreak because she thinks Tarzan abandons her.

Thank goodness by this time La had married someone else, so while she was around for most of the book, he wasn't a nuisance. Again, some evolutionary material, but it's pretty easy to ignore. Tarzan escapes from so many almost-death scenarios, no wonder there's a later book called Tarzan the Invincible.
Jane is thought dead for a while, but not half as long as before, and is safe in the arms of Tarzan by the end of the book. Also, there's a couple uses of the b-word, but in a completely appropriate breeding sense. Just a warning. The Tarzan series has lost its freshness and has become formulaic and could easily be ghost-written with the same generic plot elements re-worked over and over with changes in detail and names.
However, the apeman is still the apeman, his adventures, as always, are a fun romp through the jungle and lost cities, an element of freshness appears here and there to hold the cadres of adoring fans, and I can run through them rather fast, already knowing the route, having been there before.

On the plus side we have Tarzan taming a pet lion, a larger group of evil villains who must be corralled one by one, and the appearance of Tarzan's evil twin spoiling his reputation among the jungle-folk. I also like the idea of Tarzan finding himself cash-strapped after WWI's destruction-hey, wars have consequences even for Tarzan-and Jane's objecting to his crazy jungle adventures, adding a note of humanity to the characters and tying them into into the over arching story-line, such as it is. On the minus side, we have the re-appearance of La and Opar, always my least favorite elements in the Tarzan series. Tarzan has been one of my favorite characters since childhood.

The book is about an expedition by Tarzan to steal some gold from Opar and his encounter with another expedition of Europeans after the same gold.

The book is about an expedition by Tarzan to steal some gold from Opar and his encounter with another expedition of Europeans after the same gold. The two highlights are his befriending and training a lion and the fact that the other expedition has an actor impersonating him as one of their schemes. Pretty unbelievable stuff, but then it always is with Tarzan adventures. If you like a retro pulp adventure and fantasy then it is hard to go wrong with a quick read of a Tarzan book like this.
Warning: there are some pretty racist ideas in all of the Tarzan books! I find it pretty similar to seeing the old Tarzan movies. It might offend some but I feel like it shows you how screwed up white-anglo thinking was a century ago and how (most of us) have changed. If kids were reading this today it would be something to discuss with them.
Money is running short following the German's wartime depredations on Tarzan's property, so Tarzan heads back to Opar for a third time, to nick more gold from their hidden treasure vaults. Things get complicated as a group of Europeans set out with the same idea, bringing with them an actor who impersonates Tarzan well enough to fool the Waziri and even Jane.

Tarzan must save La, priestess of the Flaming God, first from plotters in Opar, and then, with the help of his pet lion, from the gorilla-men who rule the Valley of Diamonds. Then he must track down his mysterious impersonator and restore order to the jungle.
In addition to the usual depiction of the 'gomangani', there a particularly ugly caricature of a German Jewish character in this one, which looks like it was meant to provide some sort of comic relief at the time. Tarzan and the Golden Lion (Tarzan #9) by Edgar Rice Burroughs (Ballantine Books 1923)(Fiction). The story opens with Tarzan, bound, drugged, and helpless before the High Priests of Opar. He is rescued once again by La, the high priestess of the Flaming God, who loves Tarzan desperately. Together with a golden lion, Tarzan and La escape into the legendary Valley of Diamonds.

To view it, Like all the rest of the Tarzan books, Tarzan starts off on another adventure on his way home. I am starting to like the way Burroughs introduces creatures and places that don't exist because he was, simply, running out of room in Africa.
