The Lost World

Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World follows a paleontologist and his companions—including Professor Challenger, in his first of many appearances in Doyle's books—into the Amazon jungle where they encounter living dinosaurs, including iguanodons, stegosauruses, pterodactyls, and more.

Written with the same wit and style as Doyle's Sherlock Holmes series, The Lost World is an exciting and original tale that served as inspiration for Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park and its sequel The Lost World, both of which were memorably adapted into feature films directed by Steven Spielberg.
