About
Details
THE LOST WORLD was Professor Challenger's first adventure for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Ned Malone narrates the story (aka Dr. Watson). Ned's just been jilted by his lady love, Gladys, so he's up for a new adventure. Still, it takes Prof. Challenger some doing to convince the young man to go along - including a bit of fisticuffs! The story is a far departure from the Sherlock Holmes series - even in genre! This is Science Fiction. True science fiction, as it was designed by the likes of H.G. Wells...
