Dwellers in the Mirage (1932) is one of A. Merritt's superb lost world tales. An engineer discovers he is a warrior from the distant past, and finds a lost world. This book has affinities with sword-and-sorcery. There is action and there is magic, there are strange gods and stranger beliefs.

A.Merritt, a forgotten master of weird fiction. His work ranges from horror (Burn Witch Burn) to epic fantasy (the delightful The Ship of Ishtar). The Face in the Abyss (1931) is a blend of dark fantasy and the 19th century adventure tale in the style of H. Rider Haggard, with a dash of Conan Doyle.
And it features a great lost world. Great fun.
