Thos. Kent Miller

4.9/5 (26911 ratings)

Description:This amazing memoir chronicles a quest by Allan Quatermain deep into Hell—the brutal deserts of Ethiopia—in 1872 accompanied by a host of the nineteenth century's most prodigious luminaries--among them America's first woman astronomer Maria Mitchell. THE ROSE OF FIRE—Many readers have asked for this condensed version of Thos. Kent Millers' exciting and annotated THE GREAT DETECTIVE AT THE CRUCIBLE OF LIFE; OR, THE ADVENTURE OF THE ROSE OF FIRE also known as ALLAN QUATERMAIN AT THE CRUCIBLE OF LIFE; OR, THE ADVENTURE OF THE ROSE OF FIRE This short novel is a thought-provoking Lost-Race adventure story in the Horn of Africa in 1872. The Danakil Desert in Ethiopia is a hellish wasteland of volcanoes and earthquakes, one of the most horrible environments on earth, and Allan Quatermain (hero of KING SOLOMON'S MINES) leads a safari in search of Abyssinia's Emperor Theodore, who was seen to commit suicide four years before on the steps of his palace rather than see 32,000 British troops overwhelm his mountaintop fortress. But what is the meaning of the 2,000-year-old hidden city and its mysterious population deep in the desert? Who is their queen? What is the fabulous secret she holds in her heart that will change all the world? What is the meaning of the Rose of Fire? "A red light, a burning spark seen far away in the darkness, taken at the first moment of seeing for a signal . . . and then, as if in an incredible point of time, it swelled into a vast rose of fire that filled all the sea and all the sky and possessed the land." —Arthur Machen in “The Great Return” Here are some reviews of the full annotated editions: "A great adventure story of the lost race/hidden civilization genre. [Miller] weaves a masterful tale recovered from the legendary Allan Quatermain."—Golden Fleece (Amazon) "it is a extremely good Quatermain story, (as good as the originals)."—Darkendale "Raven" (Amazon) "This is more than an adventure novel; it is far more than just another untold chapter in the life of Sherlock Holmes. By mixing elements of Doyle, Haggard, Verne, Collins, Kipling, and others, Thos. Kent Miller has created a remarkable literary melting pot that will certainly appeal to fans of Alan Moore's "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" series or of Philip Jose Farmer's Wold Newton universe."—mcduck (amazon) "Allan Quatermain is persuaded to lead a bunch of people into Africa to find some things. They have all sorts of adventures along the way. And what they find surprises all of them, and all of us, too."—Anonymouse (Amazon) "I thoroughly enjoyed Thomas Kent Miller's The Great Detective at the Crucible of Life.The characters were well developed and interesting."—JWC "SEAL 76" "Wondrous attention to detail and deep regard to the underlying original literature of both [Haggard and Doyle].... a fine blending of two beloved contemporaneous fictional canons in a way that honors the spirit and the storytelling craftsmanship of both."—Rodger C.
