Overview

In The Lost World, the first in a series of books to feature the bold Professor Challenger-- a character many critics consider one of the most finely drawn in science fiction-- Challenger and his party embark on an expedition to a remote Amazonian plateau where, as the good professor puts it, " the ordinary laws of Nature are suspended" and numerous prehistoric creatures and ape-men have survived. " Just as Sherlock Holmes set the standard-- and in some sense established the formula-- for the detective story . . ., so too has The Lost World" "set the standard and the formula for fantasy-adventure stories . . ., " Michael Crichton writes in his Introduction. " The tone and techniques that Conan Doyle first refined in The Lost World have become standard narrative procedures in popular entertainment of the present day."
