An Antarctic Mystery or The Sphinx of the Ice Fields by Jules Verne Loyal Books A wonderful coming together of two writers who wrote their books more than half a century apart. Neither of them had ever visited the remote islands they were writing about yet they provided inspiration for a couple of exciting adventure tales.In 1838, Edgar Allan Poe published The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket. It was the only complete novel published by the American author. It was the story of a young boy who stows away on board a whaling ship and it goes on to relate the events that follow. The novel ends a trifle abruptly, with the hero and his friend Dirk Peters deciding to journey to the South Pole.In 1897, the French writer Jules Verne, who was compiling his Voyages Extraodinaires (a series of 54 books that combined science and literature) took up the threads of Arthur Gordon Pym's story and wrote a two volume novel called An Antarctic Mystery (Le Sphinx des Glaces in French).Set eleven years after Poe leaves Pym on his way to Antarctica, the book opens with The Lone Avenger – Forgotten Australia The Lone Avenger – Forgotten Australia Take a deep dive into the dark and mysterious past of the land Down Under. Forgotten Australia brings you true stories you won't hear anywhere else, from the desperate struggle against Spanish Flu in Sydney and the weekend Melbourne was ruled by anarchic mobs, to Brisbane's most puzzling murder mystery and the tale of the Lord Howe Islander who tried to save passengers on the Titanic. With narration that focuses on the people at the heart of the stories and careful use of music and sound effects, each episode will make you feel like you're witnessing events while presenting the facts as uncovered during painstaking research using contemporary newspapers, official records and other authoritative primary and secondary sources.
