George Edward Challenger, better known as Professor Challenger, was a fictional character in a series of fantasy and science fiction stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Unlike Conan Doyle's self-controlled, analytical character, Sherlock Holmes, Professor Challenger was an aggressive, hot-tempered, dominating figure. He was also a pretentious and self-righteous scientific jack-of-all-trades. Challenger was, in many ways, rude, crude, and without social conscience or inhibition. Yet he was a man capable of great loyalty and his love of his wife was all encompassing. Within these pages are all five Professor Challenger stories: Two novels (The Lost World and The Land of Mist), one novella (The Poison Belt) and two short stories (The Disintegration Machine and When the World Screamed). A salways, Conan Doyle brings the characters and his world alive! He pulls us in with them, until we are truly worried for them! And in these five tales, the danger is truly great. From a land where danger lurks on land, water and air from creatures which should be extinct, to an apocalyptic danger threatening our entire planet, to a scientific creation with truly horrifying possible misuses. And though less dangerous, no less incredible is the tale of spiritualism, and how it can be cruelly used for profit, and a tale that might make you think just how terrible our abuse of our planet might be! Professor Challenger may be gone, but these exciting tales, from the rich, imaginative mind of one of the world s greatest writers, remain to entertain us! Come along for the ride!
