Underground Kingdom

Rating:
Summary: A classic of the genre
Review: Packard is almost at his best in this tale of subterrenean adventure. He utilises his imagination (always his best asset as a writer) and ties in characters from other Packard books. This device, in particular, helps the reader think there's some continuity here, some sense of belonging to the Packard family.

We come across all manner of wonderful beasts and baddies (and the odd symbolistic morality tale) down below the Bottomless Crevasse, in what is probably Packard's greatest work outside of 'Hyperspace'.
