What begins as a rescue mission becomes a showdown at the Black Rider's hideout, where Kidd must confront a mystery that challenges everything he expected about his adversary.

As Richard sets poisoned bait and coordinates with the mountain folk to trap the ravenous beasts, he must contend with a double-tusked elephant, a massive lizard, and the girl who refuses to stay behind.

When Sub discovers that Mupha has kidnapped an artist named Cora Dale from the New England coast, he must fight his way through the creature-filled domain to locate her and escape the flooded Land of Peril. It's a thrilling undersea rescue mission that pits Sub's courage and combat skills against one of the ocean's most dangerous threats.
