Summary

Edward Malone is a newspaperman with an ultimatum: in order to marry the girl of his dreams, he must go on a grand adventure and make a name for himself. He is directed to interview one of the most irascible and volatile characters in all literature - Professor George Edward Challenger. By the time the week is out, Edward Malone is one of an elite expedition led by Professor Challenger into an area that has been isolated from all the natural changes of time. It is a lost world of gigantic insects, warring barbaric tribes, and dinosaurs. But once they discover it, they find themselves absolutely, positively trapped in a land that time has forgotten.

Found The Lost World

First of all, unlike The Land That Time Forgot trilogy, B J Harrison is far better. As for the story, I have seen the film and the BBC version and A 3 season TV series but never had the chance to read the book.

It does take a while before the four explorers get to the lost world but after that ,it never got boring. If you like the late 19tth and early 20th century adventure yarns, then this will suit you.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
