In 1847, John Rumell didn’t just escape a brutal captain—he plunged into an ancient world ruled by tribal law, seductive women, and deadly customs.
Stranded on an island torn by warring clans, his only path to survival is to win the heart of an irresistible temptress and defeat her former lover. But passion comes at a price.
Branded by excruciating tattoo rituals and bound by merciless traditions, John learns too late that desire can be a cage—and he is trapped in a paradise where escape is forbidden, and pleasure is never off-limits.
Inspired by a shocking true story, Cannibal King is a gripping tale of forbidden love, betrayal, and a man who became both a leader and a prisoner in a land where savagery reigned. Perfect for fans of historical adventure, forbidden romance, and the dark allure of untamed lands.
