| Summary | "The Radium Pool" by Ed Earl Repp is a science fiction novel written in the late 1940s. The story revolves around an eerie adventure into the depths of the Manalava Plains, where two men, including the protagonist named Dowell, embark on a perilous quest to find a lost woman named Allie Lane. Their journey leads them to a mysterious pool of radiated substance, guarded by strange creatures from outer space, unveiling themes of love, loss, and the dangers of unchecked power. The opening of the novel introduces the reader to the desolate yet intriguing setting of Death Valley, where Dowell, a reporter, is assigned to cover a scientific expedition led by Professor Bloch. As they make their way into the desolate landscape, they encounter a prospector named Driftin' Sands, who reveals his decades-long search for Allie Lane, his lost sweetheart. Sands' desperation and vivid recollections entangle Dowell in a quest that is as much about uncovering the truth about Allie's fate as it is about facing the ominous forces lurking in the unexplored caverns of the Earth. The setting is richly described, hinting at both the physical and psychological challenges awaiting them as they confront the secrets hidden beneath the surface of the radium pool.
