R. A. Salvatore wrote an authorized Tarzan novel based on pilot script which was published as a trade-paperback in 1996, and a mass-market paperback in 1997.
As of 2010, it is one of only three such authorized Tarzan novels, being preceded by Fritz Leiber's Tarzan and the Valley of Gold novelization, and followed by Philip Jose Farmer's 1999 the Dark Heart of Time.
Nikolas Rokoff—Tarzan's nemesis from the first half of The Return of Tarzan—has a stolen crystal amulet with mystical power. The crystal can open gateways to the savage land of Pellucidar, and in so doing allows reptilian humanoids known as Mahars to attack the surface world. Tarzan therefore has to stop not only Rokoff; but Mora, the Queen of the Mahars as well.
