    Dino-might
  

*by S***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 July 2019*

Though there have been numerous movie adaptations of this novel I don't believe I have seen a single one so the story has been unfamiliar to me up until this point, though I can definitely see how it has influenced adventure fiction since it was first published. Sherlock Holmes will always be Conan Doyle's most famous creation (whether he likes it or not) but few people seem to be aware that with the Lost World, written after he was done with Holmes for good, he introduced a new leading man - the pugnacious Professor Challenger (a rather on-the-nose moniker).Opening in 1900s London (not too soon after the discovery of dinosaurs when you think about it) Professor Challenger is mocked by his peers for his insistence that an undiscovered plateau in South America is home to prehistoric creatures and plant life. Narrator and reporter Edward Malone, hungry for adventure, joins Challenger along with Lord John Roxton and Professor Summerlee and sets off to find this mythical place and the novel takes the form of his letters to his newspaper editor.For a man who, I assume, never ventured deep into the South American jungle, Conan Doyle densely describes the journey in a way that makes you believe and he mixes science and fiction deftly. One can really tell how this influenced later writers such as Michael Crichton (who writes the introduction in this Modern Library edition) and his love for adventure in Jurassic Park and Congo. Even King Kong seems to have taken a lot from this work.Professor Challenger went on to appear in a few more, much less successful novels, though Conan Doyle proved he was no one-trick pony with the Lost World, which still stands tall among adventure fiction of the modern era.I must point out that although a T-Rex skull appears on the cover, at no point does said dinosaur appear in the novel, and I should address the plot hole of the pterodactyl pit and why could they not just fly away to the rest of the world instead of staying up on the plateau.

    Right cover, wrong book
  

*by C***G on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 February 2021*

Was sitting down to read this tonight only to discover that although the hardback front cover is The lost world. The contents are "12 Years a slave"Word of warning to Che k books you order immediately, not leave them on the shelf for 2 months before you plan to read them.

    poor product
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 August 2020*

I was under the impression i had ordered a book. very disappointed to receive what can only be described asa pamphlet/educational tool! It has 130 pages of very poor font selection and sentencing structure. it definitelydoes not feel like a real book. And the very back page has the words printed in great britain by Amazon!!!This is not a good product and can only be rated as a poor attempt to create a book reading experience.
