«Las minas del rey Salomón» is the adventure novel by Henry Rider Haggard, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (266 pages, in Spanish).
At the end of the 19th century, elephant hunter Allan Quatermain ventures into the heart of Africa in search of the legendary mines of King Solomon. The expedition must face a relentless environment, wild beasts and hostile tribes, while the narrative asks whether materialistic civilization is in fact more savage than the cultures it encounters along the way.
First novel in the Allan Quatermain series; it was originally published in 1885 under the title «King Solomon's Mines».
Suitable for young and adult readers who enjoy classic adventure novels and 19th-century exploration stories.
Sir Henry Rider Haggard was an English writer of adventure fiction romances set in exotic locations, predominantly Africa, and a pioneer of the lost world literary genre. He was also involved in land reform throughout the British Empire. His stories, situated at the lighter end of Victorian literature and including the eighteen Allan Quatermain stories beginning with King Solomon's Mines, continue to be popular and influential.
