From the bestselling author of The Day of the Jackal, international master of intrigue Frederick Forsyth, comes a thriller that brilliantly blends fact with fiction for one of this summer's--or any season's--most explosive reads!

Król powrócił. Przez lata Carl Denham zyskał reputację najlepszego twórcy filmów dokumentalnych i postanowił pójść o krok dalej. Wraz z ekipą filmową i aktorką Ann Darrow wyruszył ku mitycznej Wyspie Czaszek, kierowany tajemniczą mapą. To, co tam ujrzeli, przerosło ich najgorsze koszmary. Cały archipelag ogrodzono wielkim murem, mającym chronić świat śmiertelnych przed czymś strasznym. Przed bogiem-bestią. Przed królem Wyspy Czaszek. King Konga stworzył Merian C. Cooper, amerykański filmowiec, który położył podwaliny pod polskie lotnictwo wojenne. Choć Devos W. Lovelace napisał powieść na zlecenie Coopera, w kilku miejscach różni się ona od filmu. Niektóre sceny, jak ta z wielkimi insektami, pojawiły się dopiero w filmie z 2005 roku w reżyserii Petera Jacksona. Historia opowiedziana w tej książce najbliższa jest oryginalnej wizji króla małp.
