approximately 1830 to 1880, spanning the era from the Great Trek of the =20=

adventure novels.

him, too.

of Helena of Troy (actually, Helena was of Greece, but, well, you =20

again... And we learn about the witch doctor who who wants to revenge =20=
his family on the Zulu people...
"Finished" sees the dramatic end game of the witch doctor. Will he get =20=
his revenge, or will he perish like his loved ones did oh so many years =20=
ago? And will Quatermain (now maybe 40 to 50 years of age) and his =20
young friends survive all the rage and upheaval, as a near apocalyptic =20=
test of might and wisdom draws close? Well, read 'em all today and see =20=
for yourself! ;=3D}
