H. Rider Haggard's 19th-century novel 'Allan Quatermain," is the sequel to the novel "King Solomon's Mines"(1885). In this novel, adventurer Allan Quaterman's son has passed away and Quatermain longs to get back into the wild. From the eastern coast of Africa, he and a party of comrades arrive in the hostile territory of the Maasai and eventually make their way to a sacred lake of the Zu-Vendis. Although they are not welcome, the lake is ruled by two queens who take a great liking to the party. "King Solomon's Mines" and "Allan Quatermain" were adapted into the film King Solomon's Treasure (1979).H. Rider Haggard (1856-1925) was an English adventure fiction and non-fiction writer. His works include short stories and novels that have influenced adult and children’s literature alike. Considered a pioneer in the lost world literary genre, his stories are often set in exotic locations, primarily Africa. Haggard’s stories have been adapted into films countless times. The Ayesha novel series has seen several film adaptations, including She (1965) with Peter Cushing and Ursula Andress, based loosely on the books.B. J.

Benjamin Hawk - Merirosvon oppipoika, E-bok
On vuosi 1692 ja Benjamin Hawk tuntee pitkästyvänsä kuoliaaksi ankaran setänsä suutarinverstaassa. Isoisän salaperäiset tarinat maailman meriltä alkavat kiehtoa Benjaminia enemmän kuin pikilangan ompelu kuluneisiin kenkiin. Portsmouthista purjehtii laiva jos toinenkin kohti seikkailuja, joissa Benjamin haluaa olla mukana. Vaikka äiti varoittaa Benjaminia, että meri vie vielä pojan kuten vei tämän isän, Benjamin karkaa merille isoisän avulla. Tuttu Willy opettaa ystävänsä laivan - joskus karskeillekin - tavoille. Matkalla Benjaminille selviää, etteivät isoisä sen paremmin kuin isäkään olleet aikoinaan ihan tavallisia kauppamiehiä.Vapaat tuulet vievät Benjaminin hurjaan seikkailuun Port Royalin vesille, jossa jokainen etsii onneaan keinoja kaihtamatta. Uusien ystäviensä avulla Benjamin ei aio jää toiseksi. Jos tahtoo rikastua, pitää katsoa ahterin sijaan kokkaa kohti!

Cale J J: Naturally
J.J. Cale never recorded a full album until Eric Clapton scored a huge hit with Cale's "After Midnight". Cale released his debut album Naturally in 1972, not knowing this would be the beginning of the so-called Tulsa-sound. A lazy, rolling Boogie that contradicted all the commercial styles of Boogie, Blues, and Country-Rock that was popular at the time. The albumincludes "Call Me The Breeze" & "After Midnight".HIGH QUALITY
