Discovering a lost city in the Mexican jungle, two adventurers
embark on a terrifying journey. Disturbing ancient gods and
nightmare creatures, they find a hidden civilization of Aztecs and
bring dark magic into the modern world. With a potent cocktail of
romance, revenge and swampish evil this book is one of the earliest
examples of fantasy and remains an enthralling read. Gertrude
Barrows Bennett, writing as Francis Stevens, is often regarded as
the founder of dark fantasy and was admired by H.P. Lovecraft
amongst many, with some ranking her alongside Mary Shelley in
impact and imaginative power. Flame Tree 451 presents a new series,
The Foundations of Feminist Fiction. The early 1900s saw a quiet
revolution in literature dominated by male adventure heroes. Both
men and women moved beyond the norms of the male gaze to write from
a different gender perspective, sometimes with female protagonists,
but also expressing the universal freedom to write on any subject
whatsoever. Each book features a brand new biography and a new
glossary of Literary, Gothic and Victorian terms.
