The Man Who Would Be King

Two British adventurers, Daniel Dravot and Peachey Carnehan, set out for the mountains of Kafiristan with a daring dream: to become kings of an unknown land. Armed with little more than their wit, boldness, and blind faith in fortune, they achieve the impossible—conquering an isolated kingdom and being hailed as gods by its people.

With The Man Who Would Be King, Rudyard Kipling delivers a masterful tale of adventure, greed, and the clash of cultures. A fable of empires and men that, more than a century later, remains an unforgettable story about human ambition and its limits.
