FEARLESS MASTER OF THE JUNGLE marks the return of Charole, last seen plunging from a balcony at the end of Sacrifice For The Quagga God. Now she's determined to regroup before once more making a bid for power. Secretly leaving the Mun-Gatah capital she heads owards a quiet village but, on the way, is captured by a band of sea-faring Orientals, the Cara-Bunte. After demonstrating one of her 'terrifier' grenades and giving a display of fighting prowess, she quickly persuades her captors that she'll make a more valuable ally than prisoner.
Meanwhile, the newly married Bunduki and Dawn are enjoying the wild freedom offered by Earth's counterpart. The couple move into their tree-house, capture and train a couple of magnificent zebras and deepen their friendship with the Telonga tribe. But the honeymoon period isn't going to last much longer ...
The Cara-Bunte want their own 'terrifiers'. But Charole doesn't know how to make the 'thunder-powder' that fills them. At the end of the first book in the series, she had witnessed Bunduki's recognition when he saw some of the gunpowder. She's certain that 'The Earths' know how to manufacture it. So she tells the Cara-Bunte that they must hunt and capture Bunduki and Dawn.
