Colonial editions were produced to appear distinctive, in order to market them as reliable series of quality, and to prevent them being sold in the United Kingdom, where new novels cost at least twice as much per title as in the colonies. They were a cornerstone of the book trade to South Africa between the South African War (1899–1902) and World War One (1914–1918).\n\n\"Romance with a tinge of occultism; a mixture of science-fictional and supernatural motifs. * England, with a flashback to ancient Egypt\" (Bleiler).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"details\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"heading\"\u003eBook Condition: \u003c\/span\u003eGood: Bumping and rubbing to corners and spine ends, with fading to covers and spine.
