Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Minos of Sardanes" by Charles B. Stilson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a fantastical setting characterized by ice, fire, and volcanic activity in the Antarctic, where two main characters, Polaris Janess and Zenas Wright, embark on a perilous journey aboard a ship, the Minnetonka. They are racing against time to save a mysterious civilization known as Sardanes from impending extinction due to a volcanic eruption that threatens the valley's very existence. The opening of the narrative introduces a dramatic scene on the bridge of the Minnetonka as it navigates through the tumultuous Antarctic Sea amidst a fierce storm and the stunning spectacle of volcanic eruptions on shore. Polaris, a young man with a wild background, reflects on his past adventures and the love he holds for Rose Emer, while Zenas, an esteemed geologist, expresses concern about the devastating forces at play. As the ship moves forward, the profound connection between the world of nature and the fate of the Sardanes people is established. The chapter sets the tone for a tale of adventure, duty, and the awakening of an ancient civilization facing the brink of destruction.
