Pellucidar
Pellucidar is Edgar Rice Burroughs’s rousing sequel to At the Earth’s Core, published in 1915, and a favourite of his hollow-earth adventures. Beneath our feet, Burroughs imagines, lies Pellucidar, a savage inner world lit by a tiny central sun where it is always noon, ruled by fierce reptilian masters and roamed by beasts long extinct on the surface. Returning there in his iron mole, David Innes sets out to find the woman he loves, to unite the scattered human tribes, and to build an empire that can throw off their monstrous overlords. Fast, colourful, and endlessly inventive, it is pure adventure from the creator of Tarzan. This free PDF and EPUB offers the complete novel.
