Savage Pellucidar

By Edgar Rice Burroughs

Book Overview

When David Innes and Abner Perry set out to search for mineral deposits in Perry's newly invented Mechanical Prospectro, they never dreamed of discovering the beautiful, terrifying world of Pellucidar five hundred miles beneath their feet. Cast into a country of fierce fighting men, beautiful women, and vicious beasts, David and Abner take sharply diverging paths. David and his mate, Dian the Beautiful, set out to teach Pellucidar the ways of civilization and succeed in gathering a number of primitive kingdoms into the Empire of Pellucidar. Meanwhile, Abner turns his inventive genius to the science of aeronautics, with dire results for both David and Dian. The seventh and final book in Edgar Rice Burroughs's Pellucidar series, Savage Pellucidar continues the epic story with a masterful blend of action, humor, and suspense.

last of the pellucidar/ earths core stories

Another in the series of books that Burroughs wrote about Pellucidar, the land at the Earth's core. In fact it is the last Pellucidar tale, and wraps up the adventures of David Innes and Abner Perry. The men have continued to work to improve their lives in the primitive environment and are smelting metals to build the things they need. Perry has built an aeroplane in his quest to continue civilizing the inner world, where it is always daytime and prehistoric beasts are trying to eat them. Another exciting adventure tale about Pellucidar. The cover painting by Frank Frazetta is one of the most collectible he has ever done.
