The Poison Belt

Description

The Poison Belt is the second book in the Professor Challenger series. Written in 1913, roughly a year before the outbreak of World War I, much of it takes place in a single room in Challenger's house in Sussex — rather oddly, given that it follows The Lost World, a story set largely outdoors in the wilds of South America. This would be the last story written about Challenger until the 1920s, by which time Doyle's spiritualist beliefs had begun to influence his writing.

This book has 81 pages in the PDF version, and was originally published in 1913.

Production notes: This ebook of The Poison Belt was published by Global Grey in 2018.
