About this ebook

One of the most gripping fantasies ever written, „The Moon Pool” embodies all the romanticism and poetic nostalgia characteristic of A. Merritt’s writings. The plot concerns an advanced race which has developed within the Earth’s core. Eventually their most intelligent members create an offspring. This created entity encompasses both great good and great evil, but it slowly turns away from its creators and towards evil. The entity is called either the Dweller or the Shining One. A party of archeologists stumble upon this lost subterranean land and must fight to save their own world on the earth’s surface. With an exciting narrative full of thrilling action sequences, memorable characters, and a fascinating civilization of bizarre wonders, it is a great adventure novel that will thrill fans of classic science fiction.

A. Merritt

A. Merritt (1884-1943) was an American editor and fantastic fiction writer. Born Abraham Grace Merritt in Beverly, New Jersey, he moved with his family to Philadelphia in 1894. Merritt worked as a reporter for The Philadelphia Inquirer before joining the staff of The American Weekly as assistant editor in 1912. On the side, Merritt—one of the highest paid journalists of his time—found success as writer of popular fantasy tales. He had a run of successful stories and serial novels that appeared in Weird Tales, Science and Invention, and Argosy, including The Moon Pool (1918), The Metal Monster (1920), and Dwellers in the Mirage (1932). Merritt was a direct influence on such writers as H. P. Lovecraft and Richard Shaver and was recognized for his achievements as a 1999 inductee to the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame.
