The concept of “Lost Worlds” in French proto-science fiction and fantasy dates back to 1710. The four novels collected in this volume are uniquely original and illustrate the rich tradition of fantastic voyages to extraordinary “Lost Worlds” in the broad spectrum of French fantastic literature. In Eugène Hennebert’s The Enchanted City (1893), a disparate band of French explorers, embark upon the quest for Kisimbasimba, the eponymous "enchanted city" of Central Africa.
In Charles Derennes’ The People of the Pole (1907), two French aeronauts during an expedition to the North Pole, stumble upon an alien society of technologically-advanced reptilian humanoids. Gaston Leroux’s The Bride of the Sun (1912), features a hidden Inca city in the Andes. Finally, in Guy d’Armen’s The Fall of Inramonda (1935), Doc Ardan discovers an underground realm ruled by an immortal tyrant, whose subjects are a race of artificially created “Jade Men.”
