The People That Time Forgot
1918
An island that shouldn't exist. Dinosaurs that should be extinct for sixty-five million years. And a man willing to cross the world to save people who might already be dead. Bowen Tyler, Jr. survived a submarine wreck off the coast of a mysterious island called Caprona, where time itself seems to have stalled. His friends are still somewhere in there, lost in a land of cavemen, giant reptiles, and a woman named Ajor who might be the key to escaping this place alive. When Tyler's manuscript washes up on shore, his father launches a rescue mission that will lead straight into the heart of prehistoric chaos. Burroughs builds Caprona with the confidence of a man who knows adventure. The island is beautiful and brutal, a place where every valley hides a new threat and every ridge offers a view no human eyes have seen in millions of years. This is the pulp adventure tradition at its most gleeful - dangerous dinosaurs, noble savages, and a hero who simply refuses to die. It's for anyone who's ever dreamed of finding a world that modern civilization forgot.
