Price knew all the right buttons to press to excite a young reader - exotic locations, nasty villains, wild animals and lashings of peril

The human bait was the boys themselves . . . 
 
Hal and Roger Hunt have been sent on a terrifying mission - they must save the population of Mtito Andei from a man-eating lion. But the 'King of the Beasts' isn't the only thing trying to kill the boys . . . Have the brothers bitten off more than they can chew this time ?

A reissue of Willard Price's classic adventure series set in the animal kingdom

Willard Price was born in 1887 in Peterborough, Ontario. He held a special interest for natural history, ethnology and exploration and made numerous expeditions for the American Museum of Natural History and the National Geographic Society.
