Rider Haggard's "The People of the Mist." That has a lot of great sequences, a bit of melodrama, great atmosphere, and some really amazing imagery. And it has the most vertigo-inducing sequence I've ever read toward the climax/conclusion of the book. It's not quite as good as King Solomon's Mines overall, but is far better than "She". S.
