The Land that Time Forgot - In the South Pacific is a mountainous island called Caspak. Winged humanoid creatures, dinosaurs, ferocious beasts of prey, Neanderthals, "wild ape-men," and monstrous reptiles terrorize each other, and the mixed crew of WW 1 adventurers fight across the island. The People that Time Forgot - Ex-cowboy Tom Billings leads a rescue mission to save Bowen Tyler, the protagonist of The Land That Time Forgot. In the midst of hair-raising adventures, he has more trouble keeping his own skin intact than in finding his friend. Out of Time's Abyss - The Lost world saga continues. It connects the previous two installments, bringing in characters introduced in each. Burroughs completes the revelation of his lost world's unique biological system, only hinted at in the previous installment, in which the slow progress of evolution in the world outside is recapitulated as a matter of individual metamorphosis. This system forms a thematic element serving to unite the three Caspak stories.

Edgar Rice Burroughs was an American writer known for the creation of legendary characters such as Tarzan and John Carter. Burroughs wrote many other well read science fiction and fantasy stories but the Tarzan and Barsoom collections remain timeless classics. The Caspak trilogy contains the following fantasy novels: The Land That Time Forgot, The People That Time Forgot and Out of Time's Abyss.

Though now best remembered as the creator of the character Tarzan, Edgar Rice Burroughs was a prolific writer of science fiction and fantasy tales. This novel is the third entry in Burroughs' Caspak trilogy, following The Land That Time Forgot and The People That Time Forgot. Filled with more tantalizing details about the fantastical world the novels describe, this volume also delves into the science behind the story, positing a feasible evolutionary account for the survival of dinosaurs and other prehistoric flora and fauna on a remote island.

"Caspak" is the native name for the island of Caprona, located somewhere in or near the Antarctic. Reported by the Italian explorer Caproni in 1721, the island's location was subsequently "lost." Both the island and the explorer are of course entirely fictional, and the island provides the setting for what has over the years become known as Edgar Rice Burroughs' science fiction "Caspak Trilogy." Originally written under the working title "The Lost U-Boat" and published as a three-part serial in 1918, the three tales chronicle the adventures of the survivors of a torpedoed ship and the German u-boat crew on the lost island of "Caprona," and the members of the expedition that sets out to rescue the survivors. In Edgar Rice Burroughs' trademark style, the lost mariners are thrown into a series of non-stop adventures at a breakneck pace, with the Germans pitted against the British and American survivors, the humans pitted against dinosaurs and other monstrous creatures, and the modern castaways in conflict with the native inhabitants, themselves divided into groups at distinctly different human evolutionary stages and harboring a bizarre secret that dominates human life on the island. Later published as a novel under the title "The People That Time Forgot," the original three serial segments, clearly part of a single narrative, were subsequently published as three separate short novels in paperbacks widely available for many years, and that presentation became the norm, establishing the three stories as the "Caspak Trilogy." Additional material collected and presented for Burroughs' fans, new or old, are a biographical sketch of the author and a detailed bibliography of his work.
