Intrepid reporter Edward Malone decides to investigate the claims of Professor Challenger, a temperamental but brilliant scientist, that dinosaurs still exist deep in the jungles of South America. Soon, they, along with Challenger’s unenthusiastic colleague Professor Summerlee, and the adventurer Lord John Roxton, embark on a journey to this land frozen in time. Here, they come across ferocious flying dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures as well as an equally ferocious tribe of ape-like people, who feel threatened and are determined to destroy the travellers. What follows is a tale of nail-biting adventure as the band of explorers tries to escape this lost world.Originally published in 1912, The Lost World is a science-fiction classic by the creator of Sherlock Holmes, which continues to inspire and captivate readers to this day. It comes alive once more in this edition, with an insightful introduction for modern-day readers by the acclaimed sci-fi writer Manjula Padmanabhan.

"There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it". So said Sherlock Holmes in A Study in Scarlet, Arthur Conan Doyle's classic novel that first introduced the legendary detective to the world. Now, for the first time, you can unravel that scarlet thread in the Shavian alphabet. The Shavian alphabet takes its name from Irish writer Bernard Shaw who inspired and posthumously funded it. Shaw believed there should be a simpler way to write English. His wish was fulfilled in 1962 following a worldwide competition. The result was an alphabet designed especially for English, with a unique letter for each of the 40 or so basic sounds we all use today. Whether you view this book as a linguistic curiosity, an eccentric experiment, or as inspiration to explore the possibilities of spelling reform, it shows one thing: the logic of English orthography does not have to remain a mystery worthy of the great detective.
