Rosny A n , the second most important figure in French science fiction after Jules Verne. Until now, Rosny, a member of the Goncourt literary academy, has best been known to the English-speaking public for his prehistoric thriller, Quest for Fire. Predating Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Rosny creates Lost Worlds of a different kind, where variant species are the dominant races. The Siberian valley of Nymphaeum (1893) is home to purple-skinned, water-breathing men. The Depths Of Kyamo and The Wonderful Cave Country (1896) are underground journeys featuring giant, intelligent bats. The Boar Men (1929) inhabit a mysterious island. The World of the Variants (1939) feature a parallel world which only some privileged humans can visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 264\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 26, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52539432239411,"sku":"9781935558361","price":37.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/VXJ3aW5ZbnJSTEhLdDJ1WjRKSVA5QT09.webp?v=1760860703","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-world-of-the-variants-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
