Elissa Or The Doom Of Zimbabwe is a novel by H. Rider Haggard, published in 1899. The book is set in the ancient kingdom of Zimbabwe, where the beautiful and intelligent Elissa is chosen to be the queen. However, her reign is threatened by the evil and power-hungry Gagool, who seeks to overthrow her and take the throne for herself.As Elissa struggles to maintain her power, she is aided by the brave and loyal adventurer Allan Quatermain, who becomes her ally and protector. Together, they must navigate the treacherous politics of the kingdom and fight against Gagool's schemes to seize control.The novel is a thrilling adventure story, full of action, romance, and suspense. It also explores themes of power, loyalty, and betrayal, as Elissa and Allan must confront the dark forces that threaten their world. With vivid descriptions of the African landscape and a cast of unforgettable characters, Elissa Or The Doom Of Zimbabwe is a classic of adventure literature that has captivated readers for over a century.At length, as the two men sat thus silently, for the place and its gloom oppressed them, a sound broke upon the quiet of the night, that beginning with a low wail such as might come from the lips of a mourner, ended in a chant or song. The voice, which seemed close at hand, was low, rich and passionate. At times it sank almost to a sob.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
