In the Footsteps of Tintin - Cigars of the Pharaoh (extrait)
Hot on the trail of opium smugglers, Tintin sets off across Egypt (Port Said, Cairo, the Pyramids and the Red Sea) and India. While searching for ancient pharaohs and making friends with elephants, the little reporter narrowly avoids falling victim to the poison of madness, meets an eccentric archaeologist and saves a maharaja from a killer tiger? pure excitement from start to finish! This action-packed story was one of Hergé's first, and when it was published as Cigars of the Pharaoh in 1934 the author was 27 years old. The adventure marks a turning point in Hergé's career: from Cigars onwards The Adventures of Tintin become steeped in intrigue, mystery and fantasy.
