Allan's Wife is a novel written by H. Rider Haggard, published in 1889. The book is a sequel to the popular adventure novel, King Solomon's Mines. The story follows Allan Quatermain, a hunter and adventurer, as he sets out on a quest to find his missing wife, Stella. Along the way, he encounters a group of African warriors, a tribe of cannibals, and a dangerous white sorceress named Zikali. As he navigates this treacherous journey, Allan must confront his own inner demons and face the harsh realities of life in the African wilderness. The novel is a thrilling adventure story that explores themes of love, loss, and the struggle for survival in a hostile environment. Haggard's vivid descriptions of the African landscape and its inhabitants make for a captivating read that transports the reader to a different time and place.For a moment I literally staggered beneath the terror of the shock. Then I roused myself from my despair. I bade the native run and alarm the people at the kraals, telling them to come armed, and bring me guns and ammunition. He went like the wind, and I turned to follow the spoor. For a few yards it was plain enough--Stella had been dragged along.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
