I have examined Dropped from the Clouds by Pulp Fiction Publications. It
appears to be the Kingston translation, although is starts "Are we rising?"
and not "Are we going up again". I did not have my copy with me to compare
but will try later. They are promising more of the same this year, the rest
of Mysterious Island. Too bad they are using the Kingston translation,
because otherwise the book is quite nice, large for a paperback abpit 5 x 6
inches, and has lots of the original illustrations a la Livre du Poche. The
print is also quite large and the paper not too bad for a pulp. The
publisher is in England, but I was wrong about being set in E. Germany,
the TP says prpared in Finland. They also have a "Chief Archivist" who
needs to be set straight!
