Kilimanjaro Club
Adventure, Intrigue & the Spirit of Africa
Inspired by the imaginative world of Marcus Pierson, the Kilimanjaro Club is a whimsical journey into an era of 1920s African adventure.
Through a cast of memorable characters, each with their own personality and place in the unfolding story, the collection explores a world of grand expeditions, exotic encounters, unexpected alliances, and the hardships and uncertainties of life on the African frontier.
Every character has a story. Every expedition has its surprises.
The Moshi Chronicles- Henry, Zaherra, and Giszelle enjoy an evening at a local watering hole, where the drinks flow, the company is lively, and tomorrow's adventures can wait.
The Snows of Moshi- A whimsical tribute to Ernest Hemingway's The Snows of Kilimanjaro, this tale finds Henry gravely ill. As Zaherra and Giszelle tend to him, vultures gather outside and Kilimanjaro looms in the distance—a silent reminder of mortality, regret, and the uncertain fate of even the boldest adventurers.
The Noshi Soiree - Henry, Zaherra, and Giszelle set out across the African savannah for a safari beneath the watchful presence of Kilimanjaro. With the Land Rover packed and adventure on the horizon, our intrepid trio discovers that the best expeditions are as much about the company as the journey.
The wild awaits, and the evening is young.
