Okay so the premise of this was super fascinating. An explorer from golden times goes marching into the amazon, never to return! But then it was just so fucking boring and then the eugenics movement and then calling the natives "savages" and then the author thought he'd just mosey on out to the fucking amazon and what be the one to find the lost explorer? He went out and got lost for like two hours and then went home. It wasnt as exciting as I thought and there were some problematic themes.
