The story also prominently features Tarzan's lion ally Jad-bal-ja.** **Goodreads Member: Frank liked it & rated it 3 of 5 stars:** ''When I was 10 years old, my father gave me three books for Christmas: Treasure Island, The Swiss Family Robinson, and Tarzan and the Golden Lion.

In the mean time, I started collecting Burroughs editions in hard cover and now have a near-complete set of his books. So I kept seeing the books on their shelves and decided to read the next Tarzan adventure, Tarzan the Invincible.'' **Goodreads Member: Qt really liked it & rated it 4 of 5 stars:** I thought this was a fun one! Some of the later Tarzan books that I've read recently hadn't really held my interest, but **this one, like many of the earlier books in the series, was fun, fast-paced, and full of adventure.**
