Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "AYESHA SERIES – Complete Collection: She (A History of Adventure) + Ayesha (The Return of She) + She & Allan + Wisdom's Daughter" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents: "She" is one of the classics of imaginative literature, and one of the best-selling books of all time. She was extraordinarily popular upon its release and has never been out of print. The story is a first-person narrative that follows the journey of Horace Holly and his ward Leo Vincey to a lost kingdom in the African interior. There they encounter a primitive race of natives and a mysterious white queen named Ayesha who reigns as the all-powerful "She", or "She-who-must-be-obeyed". In this work, Rider Haggard developed the conventions of the Lost World subgenre, which many later authors emulated. "Ayesha, the Return of She" is a gothic-fantasy novel, a sequel to his far more popular and well known novel, She. "She and Allan" is a novel, in which Haggard brought together his two most popular characters, Ayesha from She (to which it serves as a prequel), and Allan Quatermain from King Solomon's Mines. Wisdom's Daughter is the final book in the Ayesha series. Sir Henry Rider Haggard (1856-1925) was an English writer of adventure novels set in exotic locations, predominantly Africa, and a pioneer of the Lost World literary genre. His stories, situated at the lighter end of Victorian literature, continue to be popular and influential. His novels portray many of the stereotypes associated with colonialism, yet they are unusual for the degree of sympathy with which the native populations are portrayed.

Book excerpt: H. Rider Haggard's fantastic tales out of Africa have few equals and the Ayesha Series are no exception. The first novel in the series, She, is possibly one of the best known of Haggard's works, an author famous for other classics such as Allan Quatermain and King Solomon's Mines. Full of mystery and delight, She has become one of the most popular novels ever written. The Ayesha Series includes all four classic novels of She-who must be obeyed-in one complete, action-packed, and lavishly illustrated edition. This collection brings together all of Ayesha's fantastic exploits in the mysterious lost world of Africa and beyond in a single volume. She is the first of four exciting adventures brimming with magic, mysticism, intrigue, love, tragedy, war, and power that feature the beautiful immortal queen Ayesha. She and Ayesha, the Return of She both feature Cambridge professor Horace Holly and his ward Leo Vincey on their adventures with Ayesha spanning the lost worlds of Africa and Asia. She and Allan, unites two of Haggard's most beloved characters, Allan Quatermain-the indomitable trader, explorer, big game hunter, and central character of the hugely successful Allan Quatermain novels -and Ayesha herself, in a prequel to She. The final novel in the series is Wisdom's Daughter which tells of Ayesha's origins in ancient Egypt and her adventures across the Mediterranean as she ascends to immortality as Isis's incarnation on Earth. All four novels are rollicking rides full of action, adventure, and thrills.Included in this action-packed complete collection of Gothic fantasy are all of Ayesha's tales including: Wisdom's Daughter (1923)She and Allan (1921)She: A History of Adventure (1886)Ayesha: The Return of She (1905)Hugely influential and wildly popular, She had sold an estimated 87 million copies in 44 different languages when Ursula Andress starred in a 1965 film adaptation based on the books.In popular literature, C.S. Lewis patterned Empress Jadis on She in the sixth book of the Narnia series, The Magician's Nephew. She is also credited as an inspiration for J.R.R. Tolkien's characters Shelob and Galadriel.In nonfiction, Ayesha is mentioned in Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams and by Jung in his lectures.Outside of fiction and nonfiction, She has inspired more than 10 film adaptations including the 1925 version directly involving Haggard.Note The Ayesha books can be read as written by publication date (i.e. She: A History of Adventure, Ayesha: The Return of She, She and Allan, and Wisdom's Daughter) or in chronological order based on story order (i.e. Wisdom's Daughter, She and Allan, She: A History of Adventure, andAyesha: The Return of She).For ease of navigation and to facilitate reading order preference, this edition includes an interactive table of contents.

Book excerpt: Ayesha, Reincarnated “Think then what it is to live on here eternally and yet be human; to age in soul and see our beloved die and pass to lands whither we may not hope to follow; to wait while drop by drop the curse of the long centuries falls upon our imperishable being, like water slow dripping on a diamond that it cannot wear, till they be born anew forgetful of us, and again sink from our helpless arms into the void unknowable.” - H. Rider Haggard, Ayesha: The Return of She Horace Holly and Leo Vincey are convinced Ayesha didn’t die in Africa so they embark on a journey to Asia and Tibet where they meet the wife of an evil emperor, Khania Atene who claims to be the descendant of one of Alexander the Great’s Hellenic generals. The two also find out that Atene has a rival, in the mysterious Princess of He's, Hesea. Both Atene and Hesea declare their love for Leo. Xist Publishing is a digital-first publisher.

Book excerpt: Pride and Prejudice with a modern twist AYESHA SHAMSI has a lot going on. Her dreams of being a poet have been set aside for a teaching job so she can pay off her debts to her wealthy uncle. She lives with her boisterous Muslim family and is always being reminded that her flighty younger cousin, Hafsa, is close to rejecting her one hundredth marriage proposal. Though Ayesha is lonely, she doesn’t want an arranged marriage. Then she meets Khalid who is just as smart and handsome as he is conservative and judgmental. She is irritatingly attracted to someone who looks down on her choices and dresses like he belongs in the seventh century. When a surprise engagement between Khalid and Hafsa is announced, Ayesha is torn between how she feels about the straightforward Khalid and his family; and the truth she realizes about herself. But Khalid is also wrestling with what he believes and what he wants. And he just can’t get this beautiful, outspoken woman out of his mind.
