Review
A pretty good mad scientist tale. There is a lot of imagination to the super-science in the story and the powers that the lama has. The story and characters are pretty typical of 1930s SF. Still was pretty enjoyable. This is a story that may be liked by anyone who likes the old pulp sf adventure stories.
