"A Queen of A Romance of the Caribbean" (1898), was first published in England. The following year it appeared as a serial in The Argosy pulp magazine. The story relates the discovery of a telepathic race living in the Sargasso Sea.
The first and main pseudonym of UK civil engineer and author Francis Henry Atkins (1847-1927), who contributed widely to the pre-sf Pulp magazines, writing at least three Lost-World novels along with much else.
A lost world story that actually starts out pretty strong, with a small group of people who are left to die by their ship’s crew in the fascinating Sargasso Sea. After a while they find a mythical island inhabited by a telepathic race. The writing unfortunately feels a little bit dated and the characters didn’t particularly stand out to me.
