Pellucidar

David Innes once rode a burrowing machine five hundred miles into the Earth and found a world that defied everything he knew. Now he must return. His beloved Dian the Beautiful was stolen from him through treachery, taken somewhere into the savage wilderness of Pellucidar, a land of perpetual daylight where the sun hangs motionless in a sky of copper and bronze, where prehistoric monsters stalk the fern forests, and where warring tribes and telepathic reptilian overlords shape the fates of empires. Burroughs is at his most unhinged and most fun here: a love story wrapped in a creature feature, nested inside a fever dream of pure adventure. Innes must cross a continent of monsters and madness to find his Dian, battling the terrible Mahar queens who rule through fear and ancient science, befriending dinosaurs, and rediscovering why he was willing to leave the surface world behind. It is pulp imagination at its most generous, and it has never stopped being a wild ride.
