At the Earth's Core

At the Earth's Core written by written by both Edgar Rice Burroughs and Doctor Seuss


I noticed a weirld listenning to the Liverbox audiobook of At the Earth's Core and noticed this.




"Then shall I tell you. When a man of Pellucidar intervenes between another man and the woman the other man would have, the woman belongs to the victor. Dian the Beautiful belongs to you. You should have claimed her or released her. Had you taken her hand, it would have indicated your desire to make her your mate, and had you raised her hand above her head and then dropped it, it would have meant that you did not wish her for a mate and that you released her from all obligation to you. By doing neither you have put upon her the greatest affront that a man may put upon a woman. Now she is your slave. No man will take her as mate, or may take her honorably, until he shall have overcome you in combat, and men do not choose slave women as their mates—at least not the men of Pellucidar."
"I did not know, Ghak," I cried. "I did not know. Not for all Pellucidar would I have harmed Dian the Beautiful by word, or look, or act of mine. I do not want her as my slave.
Even notice,this paragraph of  Edgar Rice Burroughs almost sounds more like Doctor Seuss
Imagine,if you will the rest of David Innes responces went like a Doctor Zaus creation and as Burroughs wrote him..

I did not to offend Dian the Beautiful.I did not,nor did I want to offend the Thipdars behind her  or the Riptars

behind them.I also,did not want to offend her green eggs and ham.

I have an Iron Mole,I like to dig,with a man named Fig.
I said to Abner Perry,we must hurry.
I was agast,as I watched the cruel Mahars,with their great wings falling like tappers.

Journey to a savage world where time is extinct!
The Adventure You Will Never Forget!

"For several minutes no one spoke; I think they must each have been as overcome by awe as was I. All about us was a flora and fauna as strange and wonderful to us as might have been those upon a distant planet had we suddenly been miraculously transported through ether to an unknown world. But the life! It teemed. The tall, fernlike trees were alive with monkeys, snakes, and lizards. Huge insects hummed and buzzed hither and thither. Mighty forms could be seen moving upon the ground in the thick forest, while the bosom of the river wriggled with living things, and above flapped the wings of gigantic creatures such as we are taught have been extinct throughout countless ages."
-- Bowen Tyler

In this low budget fantasy adventure from Britain, based on Edgar Rice Burroughs' 1918 science fiction novel, a German submarine holding American prisoners of war during World War I, veers off course. Lost at sea, the submarine empties its fuel supply and runs aground on an uncharted island in the Antarctic. Caprona is isolated from the rest of the world by its towering barrier cliffs and can be entered only through a submerged passage.

 The begins to go down hill,in cheap puppet dinosaures here.

The crew discovers that in this land that time forgot all stages of evolution seem to have merged, from dinosaurs to various evolutionary stages of cavemen. The females of Caprona/Caspak perform ritual bathing in a continent-long river that sweeps their eggs to the southern end of the island -- all except for the Galu, who have attained the status of live-bearing humans. Not every individual reaches "the top," some are destined to remain, and die, at intermediate stages. Thanks to a caveman named Ahm that the crew captured and befriended, they locate a large pool of crude oil, which they are able to refine into fuel for their submarine. Unfortunately, in their efforts to secure the fuel they need to get back home, they have to deal with dinosaurs, attacks by cavemen, and even strife among their own people. The Land That Time Forgot was enough of a success to spawn a 1976 sequel called The People That Time Forgot.
