| Summary | "The Moon Pool" by Abraham Merritt is a speculative fiction novel likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows Dr. Walter T. Goodwin, an esteemed botanist who becomes embroiled in a mysterious and perilous adventure that revolves around his friend, Dr. David Throckmartin, and a series of tragic disappearances linked to an enigmatic location known as the "Moon Pool." The story hints at themes of science, the unknown, and the supernatural, as it traverses the border between reality and the fantastical. At the start of the novel, Goodwin is returning from his botanical work in the South Pacific when he encounters Throckmartin, who seems deeply troubled following the disappearance of his wife, Edith, and their associate, Dr. Charles Stanton, during an expedition to the ruins of Nan-Matal in the Caroline Islands. Throckmartin reveals that the disappearance may be connected to a strange phenomenon he witnessed related to the Moon Pool, an ancient structure that appears to possess otherworldly qualities. As Goodwin learns more about Throckmartin's experiences, including the marks left on him by whatever took his companions, the stage is set for a thrilling exploration of a lost civilization and the dark powers that may lie within it.
