''Wisdom's Daughter'' is the final book in the Ayesha series, written by Sir H. Rider Haggard, published in 1923, by Doubleday, Page and Company. ==Overview== At the end of ''She: A History of Adventure'', the title character appeared to be killed; but promised to return. In ''Ayesha'', the second book, the two adventurers from the first novel, Leo and Holly, are inspired to look for She in Thibet. They discover people who have lived in a hidden mountain since the time of Alexander the Great. They find Ayesha leading the cult of Hes, though they do not recognise her at first. After which, they plan to return to The Flame of Life, in Kor, Africa; but first they have to wait for the paths to clear in the spring. Talking to Leo and Holly reminds Ayesha of the past; including the time she met Allan Quartermain, recounted in ''She and Allan'', the third book in the series. While they are waiting, She takes the time to write out her memories and plans to rule the world, through her alchemy, and return the Ancient Egyptian cult of Isis to prominence and power. The narrative breaks off abruptly, and returns to the conclusion of the story in ''Ayesha''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wisdom's Daughter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
