Written in 1938, it very much has the feel of Edgar Rice Burroughs heroic fiction - John Carter, Pellucidar. Take a normal person to a fantastic environment, and recount his adventures among the many different races he meets. Still, it's entertaining but I felt like it ended abruptly, so it feels very incomplete, even as a stand-alone book. At some point, I'll finish the trilogy. An old school adventure, don't look for anything too deep and complex here.
