4.0 out of 5 stars Tarzan of the Apes becomes Sarah of the Wolves, 13 Mar 2002
By A Customer
First let's get the authors sorted out. Max Merriwell is a ficticious SF author invented by Pat Murphy. She complicates things by having him write fantasy under the name of Mary Maxwell. This then is Pat Murphy pretending to be a man writing as a woman!. But it's by Murphy.

The book is the second of a series of three. At first sight there is little connection between this Tarzan in the calafornia gold rush and There and Back Again a retelling of the Hobbit in Space in the far future, although some of the characters reappear! All will posibly be made clearer in volume three - Adventures in time and space with Max Merriwell, but it's not available yet in paperback.

I am less familiar with Tarzan than I am with the Hobbit so I am less able to judge how closely the original plot is followed. However since there were I believe twenty one Tarzan books it cannot be on the almost chapter by chapter parallelism of There and Back again.

After her parents' murder Sarah is brought up by wolves. The tale tells of her gradual learning of her parents society with her realisation she belongs niether there nor totally with the wolves.
Along side this is the story of the murder's attempt to remove the last witness to his crimes.
