This is the first Burroughs book that I've read and it definitely won't be the last. I remember the film version but the book is a masterpiece of action and adventure. Yes it copies The Lost World but it has enough of its own character and depth to make it well worth reading.
My first taste of Solomon Kane and definitely not my last. I've read the Conan stories but this character seems just as exciting. Headlong action and waves of atmosphere. Enjoy.
I'd never heard of this author before but now i know what i was missing. Pulp fiction at it's best. Bad guys with no hearts and always a bleak ending. Loved it.
