Editor reviews

The aptly named Professor Challenger and young fortune seeker Edward Malone set forth on a journey of wonderment, discovery, and real-life dinosaurs. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s riveting tale of prehistoric adventure atop a remote plateau, surrounded by South American jungles, continues to inspire awe and amazement. Prolific video game voice Glend McCready lends grandeur and gaiety to the proceedings with his distinguished, upper-crust English elocution. This precursor to the modern-day cinematics of Jurassic Park treats listeners to vivid and vibrant descriptions of prehistoric beasts, unfamiliar races, and luscious landscapes.

Summary

The precursor of Jurassic Park. Somewhere in South America, there is a plateau; and roaming in its forests are dinosaurs. Only one man has ever been there, and his reports are so astonishing that no-one is prepared to believe him - except the extraordinary Professor Challenger. He decides to take a trip to prove beyond doubt that this lost world really exists. With the daredevil journalist Edward Malone, meticulous, sceptical Professor Summerlee, and the professional adventurer Lord John Roxton, Challenger sets out on a mission as dangerous as it is thrilling. Inspiring endless imitations, The Lost World is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic adventure of discovery.
