520    The Wanderer's Necklace is an adventure novel by H Rider 
       Haggard first published in 1914. Olaf, a Norseman in the 
       eighth century A.D., flees his homeland after challenging 
       the Norse god Odin's right to a human sacrifice, travels 
       to Constantinople (Istanbul, Turkey) to protect the 
       Empress Irene Augusta from her son Constantine the Fifth 
       and other enemies of the Eastern Roman Empire. From 
       Byzantinum, to the pyramid tombs of Upper Egypt, Olaf 
       becomes a traveling Christian who must reject the 
       adulterous advances of Irene. Blinded as punishment for 
       rejecting the Empress, Olaf's adventures are woven within 
       the intrigues of the Eastern Roman Empire. Olaf begins his
       recollections with a polar bear hunt, leading to his fame 
       as a great hunter, to excavating his previous life's 
       gravesite to recover the Necklace. The other half of the 
       Necklace lies on a mummy reposing within a pharaoh's tomb 
       in ancient Egypt. The adventure novel shows how these two 
       separate events tie together past and present lives. Total
       Running Time (TRT): 10 hours, 31 min. Reading by Annylee 
       Hill. Sir Henry Rider Haggard (1856-1925) was an English 
       writer of adventure novels set in exotic locations, 
       predominantly Africa, and a founder of the Lost World 
       literary genre. Haggard's stories are still widely read 
       today. Haggard's Lost World genre influenced popular 
       American pulp writers such as Edgar Rice Burroughs, Robert
       E. Howard, Talbot Mundy, Philip José Farmer, and Abraham 
       Merritt. Allan Quatermain, the adventure hero of King 
       Solomon's Mines and its sequel Allan Quatermain, was a 
       template for the American character Indiana Jones, 
       featured in the films Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of 
       Doom, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and Kingdom of 
       the Crystal Skull. Quatermain has gained recent popularity
       thanks to being a main character in the League of 
       Extraordinary Gentlemen. [Elib]
