The Lost Continent : This story, which takes place in the year 2137, may be the only one by this author to veer into science fiction. North and South America forbid travel eastward to ensure neutrality in the conflict that was suffocating Europe. Due to a technical issue, a Pan American ship is pushed beyond the permitted limit, leaving five crew members stranded on the open seas. They must go toward the east in the hopes of making landfall if they are to survive. Strangely, Burroughs believes that technology will suddenly become obsolete. The circumstances outlined 200 years from now are the same as they were at the beginning of the nineteenth century. This assumption of quiescence seems quite implausible given how rapidly technology has advanced over the past fifty years. It illustrates how ongoing conflict affects both people and property. And this was all done before the phrase "bomb them back to the Stone Age" became popular.

"Maurice Leblanc's mystery book The Crystal Stopper follows the exploits of gentleman thief Arsène Lupin. From September to November 1912, the novel was published in serial form in the French daily Le Journal. It was then published as a standalone novel. The terrible Panama scandals of 1892 and 1893 served as Leblanc's inspiration. The concept of hiding something in plain sight is taken from Edgar Allan Poe's short story ""The Purloined Letter"" and used throughout the novel.
Two of Arsène Lupin's associates are detained by the police when a crime is committed during a break-in at the residence of Deputy Daubrecq. Both will get the death penalty, regardless of whether one is guilty or innocent of the crime. Lupin fights against the vicious blackmailer of Deputy Daubrecq, who is holding an incriminating document concealed in a crystal stopper, while he tries to free the victim of a miscarriage of justice."
 
Harold MacGrath wrote the 1920 American book The Drums of Jeopardy. The Saturday Evening Post began publishing the story in serial form in January 1920. The book was adapted into a Broadway play in 1922 and a movie the following year. In 1931, a second film adaptation was released. It is reported that a young Boris Karloff, who had previously played a few uncredited cinema roles, got his stage name from a Russian mad scientist character named "Boris Karlov" in this book for his first screen credit in 1920. The character played by Wallace Beery in the film adaptation was originally called "Boris Karlov" from MacGrath's book, but by 1923, actor Boris Karloff had adopted the variation with a similar pronunciation. Less than a year before Frankenstein would make Boris Karloff a household name for generations, the name of the mad scientist was restored to "Boris Karloff" in the 1931 film adaptation with Warner Oland portraying the role. Ironically, Boris Karloff appeared in cinema as numerous insane scientists but never as "Boris Karlov."
