Great book with some caveats

What's left of the original manuscripts is fantastic, however like a lot of classic works in this current time period, the first three chapters and closing chapter are forcibly injected to cast a heliocentric marxist view over the works before the reader has an opportunity to absorb the content within, besmirching the original as crazy fantasy, thus pigeon holing the work and eliminating the readers opportunity to think for themselves. The attempted Swedish accent is also terrible and distracting, as it melts from French to Spanish to Arabic twinges, and would have simply been better left in the performers native accent. See if you can find an unmolested copy of this book for the best experience.

Classic Inner Earth Tale

Some say this is a work of science fiction. I would not be surprised if it is real. I myself have seen unexplainable things and beings while camping in the wilderness. I appreciated this book.
