Synopsis
Second part of La maison à vapeur (1880).
Trailers and luxury travellers were ideas that Jules Verne dreamed up a century before our time...and wrote them into the most exotic scenery and the most exciting adventures.
Consider Colonel Munro's marvelous steam elephant that pulled a train of palatial houses-on-wheels through the deepest jungles of India. Add a land beset with internal chaos, banditry, and rebellious local chieftians, and you have the grounds for one of Verne's most exciting novels.
Such is Tigers and Traitors, a novel packed with such wonders as a terrifying tiger hunt, a mysterious white goddess, a fight against rampaging elephants, and the pursuit of the steam caravan by an army of furious fanatics. It's fast-paced science-fiction adventure.
