Renowned for his avarice as much as his merciless brutality, no worse captor could have befallen the unfortunate explorers, who will most certainly never return home alive. If only Frank Reade Junior were there, there is no doubt that his brilliant mind would conjure up an incredible machine to rescue our unfortunate expedition. But what are the odds of encountering the prince of inventors in the forsaken dunes of the sandy Saharan wastes?
