La Reĝo de la Montoj by Edmond About

"La Reĝo de la Montoj" by Edmond About is a novel published in 1909, translated into Esperanto by Gaston Moch. Set in Greece after the War of Independence, the story follows bandits who once fought as heroes but now terrorize the mountains. The cruel Haĝi-Stavros, the "King of the Mountains," runs his criminal enterprise like a business while maintaining political influence through corruption. When European travelers fall captive to these bandits, their own flaws and follies complicate their fate in this biting satire. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
