The Lost World

Before Jurassic Park, there was The Lost World. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's 1912 adventure novel introduced Professor George Edward Challenger, a brilliant and irascible scientist who claims to have discovered a plateau in South America where dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures still survive. When a journalist and expedition team venture into the Amazon to verify his claims, they find a world beyond imagination—and dangers beyond survival. The novel that created the 'lost world' genre and inspired a century of dinosaur fiction, from King Kong to Crichton. A Raven's Gate Classics edition with breathtaking new cover art.
