Armchair fiction presents extra-large paperback editions of the best in classic science fiction novels. Roy Norton's "The Golden Fetich" is the 29th installment of our "Lost World-Lost Race Classics" series. Hoping to find the truth about a hidden metropolis with rare glyphs (records carved on stone by a lost people), a little band of daring adventurers, comprised of a scientific thief, a wealthy and chiseled big game hunter, and a well-off “out-of-doors” man, travel halfway round the world to a savage jungle within the heart of South America. This jungle (described by the native people as being “alive”) was not for the faint of heart. It was dense with the twisted vines of many strange types of vegetation, making it most difficult to traverse. It was also inhabited by monstrous bugs and killer carnivores—not to mention native tribesmen, who were not too keen on visitors! Could this ragtag team of voyagers withstand the intense terrain and ascend to their ultimate destination? Or would they be swallowed whole by a steamy, beast-infested jungle that hampered their efforts in every way imaginable?
