This novel was written between January 21 and May 11, 1915. Son of Tarzan is an extension of the well-received Tarzan trilogy (of APES, RETURN and BEASTS), Burroughs' readers expected a followup and were not disappointed by the thrilling adventure and romance provided in SON--however, meshing Korak's age and the novel's events with later tales of Tarzan continues to drive Tarzan scholars nuts. Alexis Paulvitch, a henchman of Tarzan's now-deceased enemy, Nikolas Rokoff, survived his encounter with the ape-man in The Beasts of Tarzan and wants to even the score. He lures Jack, Tarzan's son, away from London and into his clutches, but the youngster escapes thanks to the ape named Akut.The pair then flees into the deep African jungle where two decades earlier Tarzan himself had been raised. Jack Clayton, now on his own, becomes known as Korak the Killer and builds a reputation for himself in the jungle. Like his father before him, he finds his place among the great apes, and also like his father, meets and rescues a beautiful young woman, Meriem, the daughter of a Captain in the French Foreign Legion, who was also a Prince (Prince de Cadrenet), named Armand Jacot.
