El retorno de los tigres de Malasia
Paco Ignacio Taibo II

FICTION | 2011 | 352 pages

The Portuguese Yáñez de Gomara and the Malayan prince Sandokan find their possessions, their lives, and the lives of their friends threatened when they are attacked by a strange, malevolent force that appears shrouded in green mist, accompanied by dogs that aren't dogs, mass murders, and rumors.

The old libertarian pirates are forced to abandon their retirement and once again summon the Tigers of Malaysia to begin a combative descent into hell. The following pages will feature: Friedrich Engels, a seemingly innocent but cannon-laden yacht called The Liar, Dr. Moriarty, submarines, Chinese secret societies, Rudyard Kipling, the Goa casino and Cambodian brothels, silver-masked figures who once performed in a Berlin music hall, the invention of the toilet, the orangutans of Borneo, slave traders, a survivor of the Paris Commune, international financial adventurers, fundamentalist Muslim holy men, Old Shatterhand, the most famous character in Karl May's cowboy novels, balloons, Greek linguists, British war fleets, Stoic philosophers, carnivorous plants, coded messages, Filipino bankers who were friends of José Martí, anti-imperialist spies, and a Dayaka version of the Illustrated Man.
