 Each week this month. I will be reviewing a book or books in this case that I did not like So be ready for that. This week. It's the land that I forgot and it's sequel to people that time forgot by Edgar Rice Burroughs Boy, where do I start with this junk? Well, the 30 second description of this book is that a group of survivors from a Passengership that's attacked by a German U-boat during World War one They take refuge on an island that turns out to be a lost continent There's some cavemen some dinosaurs and it's stupid. It's really really stupid. Okay. That's the short description See what happens is there's this manuscript discovered in a bottle, and it's not a rescue note It's basically a full-length novel written on animal skin in berry juice with a stick All rolled up and put in a bottle and it's a it's a full-length novel or rather at 126 pages Barely a novel but that premise that starting premise alone. I don't buy And it goes downhill from there. It's about this idiot who's on board this passenger ship in the Atlantic It's torpedoed by a German U-boat He and the survivors are taken aboard the U-boat There are enough of them that they're able to overwhelm the Germans and take over the U-boat and they seek refuge in What they think is just some random bay and it turns out to be this lost continent But see here's the thing after the ship is torpedoed this guy is floating in the water And he sees this dead girl floating next to him and he falls in love with her. He falls in love with his dead body He's like oh, she's so beautiful. Well, it turns out she's not dead And she's taken aboard the U-boat with the rest of them and She has to follow along while these manly men hunt for food and fight cavemen and she gets kidnapped by cavemen and they have to go get her and Throughout the whole book this guy never shuts up about how beautiful this girl is and how in love with her He is and every single thing he does every single page. He's thinking how can he get into this girl's pants And he's constantly in despair because she won't look at him and won't talk to him and Well by the end of the book it turns out that She was avoiding him because she was in love with him too. Oh It's just stupid Okay the sequel This is apparently this is part of a trilogy and uh each of these books were basically just Three parts of a larger novel and that's why they're so short See this one's only 124 pages. Anyway I only got halfway through this book before I threw it down and discussed This book the 30 second description if I have to do it is basically This picture on the cover This this sums up the book hot cave girl in peril mainly white man with gun That's it It takes the whole manly dinosaur fighting survivor thing and cranks it up to 11 And it's just unbearable This this guy apparently knew the idiot from the first book and he got hold of the the rescue note in a bottle or the rescue novel in a bottle And he and some other manly men took an airplane down to this continent And of course the first thing to do is wreck the airplane. So he gets separated from the others and Has to make his way across the continent alone And the thing about this guy is he has a pistol and a rifle with him and he never shuts up about his guns Every single page he talks about his guns and what a great shot he is. He never shuts up about the guns And then he comes across this scene with this hot cave girl being harassed by some Some other cavemen and he shoots one of the cavemen and he describes the whole shooting at length And the other cavemen who were cowards they run away, but the cave girl She doesn't run away. She's not scared of him at all In fact when she sees him there standing with his pistol with the smoke coming out of the The gun that he just fired she walks up to him with this lustful look in her eyes And you're not going to believe this She reaches out And caresses the muzzle of the gun While gazing at him lovingly and i'm like really edgar Did you really just write that? This is the worst lowest kind of men's adventure garbage. This is just bad. Like I said, I only got halfway through it But anyway after he meets the cave girl, they start making their way together towards the north of the island and Now he's got a third thing to talk about he's talking about his two guns non-stop And the the the new thing that he won't shut up about is how hot this cave girl is She's so freaking hot He can't stop talking about her But he makes the point over and over again that he's not gonna have any designs on her He's not gonna touch her because she is not quote of his kind So in addition to this being a gun owner's wet dream and a misogynist's wet dream It's also a racist wet dream This book is so awful I looked on wikipedia and read the synopsis of this book and apparently it ends up with The two of them make their way to the north of the island where there are Full-on actual human beings living and the girl spontaneously evolves into a homo sapiens. So guess what he does Yeah, he marries her Fuck this book Please remember to press that like button It helps my videos get seen and then subscribe so you can come back next time I do science fiction book tv and movie reviews all the time and please consider becoming a patron There's a link in the description below
