Description:
Before Jurassic Park or The X-Files, there was Robert W. Chambers' thrilling expedition into the impossible. As the newest superintendent of the waterfowl department at the Bronx Park Zoological Gardens, our protagonist expects a life of quiet scientific research. Instead, he is thrust into a series of mind-bending expeditions across the globe in search of creatures that simply shouldn't exist. From pursuing the supposedly extinct Great Auk along a desolate coast haunted by a grotesque humanoid known as the "harbor master," to braving a newly shattered glacier to photograph a living mammoth, his adventures continually defy all bounds of reason and science. Fans of early Science Fiction / Weird Fiction and cryptid lore will devour this delightfully eccentric and gripping classic. Chambers brilliantly blends eerie, Lovecraftian atmospheres with witty, satirical adventure. You'll love the unique mix of terrifying monsters, unexplored wildernesses, and the sharp humor that defines this golden age of speculative fiction. Robert W. Chambers (1865–1933) was an iconic American fiction writer best known for his highly influential weird fiction masterpiece, The King in Yellow. His ability to weave cosmic horror, speculative fantasy, and satirical adventure cemented his legacy as a true pioneer of the genre. Duration - 7h 39m. Author - Robert W. Chambers.
