by Edgar Rice Burroughs. A traveler stretching his rug for the night on the warm sands of the Sahara, heard an intermittent ticking sound from the earth beneath his head. Digging, he unearthed a... More > small box from which a small cable ran straight down into the sand. It contained a telegraph instrument. Thus was revealed the story set forth in this book -- the story of the adventures of David Innes in the vast horizonless country of Pellucidar, where the noonday sun shines perpetually and there is no time; and in the Land of Awful Shadows, screened by a pendent world, where the sun has never shone. And the story, too, of the search for Dian the Beautiful, and of the strange empire established by David Innes on the inside of the world we live on. We are proud to present the original book version of this novel in the Inner Earth Series, and illustrated with the original book artwork by J. Allen St. John.< Less

More > through the Earth's crust and found, instead of a core in a highly molten and gaseous state, a world, with living, breathing, functioning humans and animals, but a world still in the Stone Age.

John Carter,... More > American, goes to sleep in a mysterious cave in the Arizona desert and wakes up on the planet Mars. There he meets with a succession of weird and astounding adventures. Think, of battling for a woman, beautiful as a houri, with the Green Men of Mars, creatures fifteen feet high, and of fearsome aspect, with two extra limbs which will function either as legs or arms, of horses like dragons, and watch-dogs like enormous frogs, with ten legs.

Tarzan is the orphaned son of a British nobleman, adopted while a baby by a tribe of anthropoid apes and cared for by a fierce animal foster-mother. He learns all the secrets of the wilds, he... More > acquires the strength and agility of his associates, and in time his human intelligence aids him in becoming the leader of the tribe. His fearless encounters with the jungle terrors, his slowly dawning realization that he is a man, are experiences such as have been nowhere else described with so absorbing an interest. When he meets with others of his kind and is able to note the strange differences, when he sees the woman who should be his mate but is separated from him by unsurmountable obstacles, even greater trials are before him. It is more than a strong, unique story—it is one that will be remembered and read again and again through the coming years.
