Out of Time's Abyss
1918
The third installment in Burroughs' legendary Caspak trilogy drops readers onto the forbidden island of Caprona, where evolution never ended and the past refuses to stay buried. Bradley and his expedition party push into the island's interior from Fort Dinosaur, and what they find defies every natural law: prehistoric monsters stalk the jungles, winged reptiles cast shadows on the mist, and ancient tribes war in stone fortresses while the rarest of men cling to their dying civilization. This is pulp adventure at its most gleefully unchecked. Burroughs throws his protagonists into a world of teeth and terror and tells them to swim or sink. No explanations, no mercy, just the raw charge of a world that should not exist but absolutely does. For readers who want to disappear into a lost world where every page hides something that wants to eat you.
