Armchair fiction presents extra-large paperback editions of the best in classic science fiction novels. Written by famed pulp author Harl Vincent, “Subterrania” is the 44th installment of our "Lost World-Lost Race Classics" series. In this edition you get two lost world-lost race classics in one. “Subterrania” is a dynamite combination of two of Harl Vincent’s best works. Part one was published in Science Wonder Stories in 1929 as “The Menace from Below.” Part two followed a year later in the same magazine as “The Return to Subterrania.” In part one of this fantastic adventure, a mad scientist plots a revolt against a world that has wronged him. Self-exiled miles below Earth’s surface, this madman hatches a diabolical plan to kidnap helpless New Yorkers and build them into his own superhuman army, thus creating the ultimate “Menace from Below.” Part two is just as thrilling. After receiving a message from beyond the grave, three adventurers return to the strange world below Earth’s crust in a harrowing tale of mad science, bloody revolt, and final redemption as our heroes discover new ancient threats and traverse the dark catacombs once more when they “Return to Subterrania.” In these two startling tales, the best elements of science fiction and lost world storytelling are flawlessly interlaced.
