Al final de Regreso a la Edad de Piedra, David Innes encontraba al fin a Von Horst, plenamente integrado en Pelúcidar, como nuevo líder de Lo-Har. Pero, a menudo, regresar a casa en un mundo como Pellucidar puede convertirse en una odisea, y eso es lo que le sucede a David Innes, cuyo regreso a Sari se tuerce casi desde el principio, lo cual sirve de excusa a Edgar Rice Burroughs para mostrarnos nuevas áreas inexploradas del mundo interior, así como nuevas criaturas y razas. https://nwhyte.livejournal.com/3424586.html One of Burroughs’ Pellucidar novels, published in 1944. Our hero goes on an Odyssey-style voyage in the world hidden beneath our own where he has already resided for many years. He escapes from strange cultures where women and non-white men are in charge, because he is smarter. He is gallant towards his own womenfolk, even though they are indistinguishable as characters. In the end, he returns to the safe haven of white male supremacy and order is restored. It's a racist mess. Each of these hand numbered editions is limited to 200 copies each signed by artist Bob Eggleton and features: A laminated color dust jacket. Over 40 illustrations – 13 in color, including new art by Bob Eggleton. a custom slipcase stamped with the image of a Tarag head; and bookmark Archival quality paper, binding and classic ERBI or G&D styling. One can almost feel the mad laughter of Burroughs as he lets go of all reality in this sixth book of Pellucidar. He creates ant people and a city where everyone is insane; a mother strang les her child to death because ":it feels good";so-called "priests do perennial cartwheels about an ugly totem to appease the gods. Wait a minute! This sounds like any Amiericn city of 2008 today. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"If you have ever wondered what a civilized man of the twentieth century would do if catapulted into an Old Stone Age where huge cave bears, saber-toothed tigers, monstrous carnivorous dinosaurs, mammoths, and mastodons roamed the savage terrain, you need look no further than Land of Terror, the sixth installment of Edgar Rice Burroughs's Pellucidar series." "Years ago David Innes and Abner Perry bored straight down through five hundred miles of the earth's crust and landed in Pellucidar, the savage, primeval world that lies at the center of the earth. This is the story of their continuing adventures in the timeless land of perpetual noon and their encounters with the hideous creatures and savage men who pursue them. Although they encounter enemies at every turn, David and Abner find a few loyal friends as they embark on exhilarating adventures."--BOOK JACKET. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
