In the summer of 1921, young doctor Francis Ardan and his father are
exploring the most remote regions of Upper Siam (now Thailand), when
they encounter a dying man whose skin is the color of jade. His
revelations lead the intrepid father-and-son team to discover the
existence of Inramonda, a secret, underground realm ruled by an immortal
tyrant known as His Eternal Wisdom, whose subjects are a race of
artificially created "Jade Men." He plots to seize power in Southeast
Asia.
Scientist and world-saving explorer Doctor Ardan was created in 1928,
five years before Doc Savage, by French author Guy d'Armen. The Fall of
Inramonda, originally published in 1935, has been adapted by the
award-winning team of Jean-Marc & Randy Lofficier.
The book also includes a Doc Ardan novella by renowned Doctor Who author
John Peel.
