About this audiobook
How to describe this book? In a word – savage. For those regular Librivox Le Queux mystery listeners, this book is a step in a different direction by the author. The book starts out like most Le Queux. Our hero, Richard Scarsmere, befriends an individual (Omar) at an English boarding school who turns out to be an African prince from a kingdom called Mo. Omar receives a visit from one of his mother’s trusted advisers. His mother, the Great White Queen, seeks him to return home immediately. Omar convinces Scarsmere to return to Africa with him since there is little opportunity awaiting him in London. What follows is a tale of deceit, treachery, barbarity, and mystery. (Summary by Tom Weiss)

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5It’s not the book itself with which I take issue...it’s the sound. The reader’s voice kept slipping in and out, which made it a chore to keep listening. I would love to have kept on reading. As far as I laboriously got, I liked a lot, but it was just too much. None of the other books I’ve listened to have had this issue. I finally had no choice...I had to quit.
