The final novel in H. Rider Haggard’s much-anticipated trilogy, ‘Allan and the Ice Gods’, sees the return of Allan Quatermain and features Lady Luna Ragnall and the taduki drug yet again. This time, however, Allan is refusing to see Lady Luna Ragnall. The awkwardness of the last three drug-induced visions, revealing their marriage, left him squirming. But she is about to let spill that their ancient counterparts were right. And they were indeed married. As Allan is yet again transported to the barbaric Ice Age, can he restore order in the tribe? And more importantly, can he weave in new technology and intelligence without unbalancing history? ‘Allan and the Ice Gods’ is the ideal rip-roaring tale, perfect for adventure-fantasy fans of Jack Black’s ‘Gulliver’s Travels’. H. Rider Haggard KBE (1856-1925) was an English writer of adventure fiction romances and a pioneer of the lost world genre. His rip-roaring tales include ‘King Solomon’s Mines’, ‘Allan Quatermain’, ‘Nada the Lilly’ and the epic Viking romance ‘Eric Brighteyes’. Portraying the stereotypes of colonialism, his work also focused on agricultural and social reform. It’s no surprise that Haggard is remembered today as an influential figure in land reform throughout the British Empire.
This novel is the final volume of the Allan Quatermain saga. Once more Quatermain takes the hallucinogenic taduki drug, as he did in previous novels, and he finds himself reliving as Wi, an civilized man living in the barbaric ice age as part of a clan of cavemen. The novel has been noted as a treatment of the topics of eugenics and evolution in literature and culture.

It also the final Allan Quatermain novel in the trilogy involving the taduki drug and Lady Luna Ragnall, following The Ivory Child, and The Ancient Allan. Allan Quatermain, feeling awkward toward Lady Luna Ragnall after their recent taduki-induced vision in The Ancient Allan, in which they were nearly married, refuses three invitations from Lady Ragnall to return for another vision and has vowed never to use the drug again. Lady Ragnall herself informs Allan that she has used the taduki once more and discovered that their ancient counterparts, Amada and Shabaka, were indeed married. Allan reads in the newspaper that Lady Ragnall has traveled to Egypt for the winter. Six weeks or so later, Allan has a psychic experience and later learns that Lady Ragnall had died of heart failure at that moment at the site of her husband's grave in the Temple of Isis. Allan inherits her estate, coveted by Lord Ragnall's next-of-kin, Mr. Atterby-Smith. He distributes it to charities except for a box containing the taduki drug which Lady Ragnall had left him. He is tempted to break his vow and use it, but finally resolves not to when his friend, Captain John Good, calls on him. Good is able to persuade Allan to use the drug and the two enter into their vision. Allan awakens as Wi, an civilized man living in the barbaric ice age. He belongs to a culture that reveres a man and mammoth frozen in ice as their gods. Wi challenges and kills his chief Henga and institutes reforms in the tribe: monogamy, decision by council, the use of new technology, etc. His friend Pag, an outcast, rises in power in the tribe and is able to stop a pack of wolves from attacking. Wi and Pag travel into the wilderness to fight off a saber-toothed tiger and discover a beautiful young woman, unconscious, in a canoe. Wi falls in love with Laleela, as does Wi's friend Moananga. Most of the tribe regards her as a witch and Wi's wife Aaka wishes for her to be killed. Pag convinces Wi that he must marry Laleela in order to protect her, but Wi realizes this will break the oath of monogamy he has imposed upon the tribe. A tribe of red-bearded warriors attacks; Wi also battles the aurochs. When he rejects the ice-gods the tribe demands someone from his house be sacrificed to them and so Wi offers himself as sacrifice. Before the sacrifice takes place, the ice-gods are thawed. The ice age is ending. Wi and his companions leave the tribe and sail south but are caught in the rapids. It is at this point that Allan and Good awaken. Allan and Good discuss their adventure. They determine that Good was Moananga, Laleela was Luna Ragnall, and Allan's sometime companion Hans was the outcast Pag. Allan surmises that they are not actually experiencing past lives, but that the taduki drug has "the power of awakening the ancestral memory which has come down to us with our spark of life through scores of intervening forefathers." He also guesses that Wi and his companions dwelt in ice age Scotland, 500,000 or 50,000 years ago, and that Laleela came from southern Ireland or northern France
