The People That Time Forgot: A Quick Read edition - E-book - Multi-format

"The People That Time Forgot" is a fantasy novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the second of his Caspak trilogy. It was first published in Blue Book Magazine in 1918 and later combined with the other two segments for publication in book form under the title of "The Land That Time Forgot". The novel is a direct sequel to "The Land That Time Forgot" and continues the lost world saga begun in the earlier story.
The novel begins with the organization of an expedition to rescue Bowen J. Tyler and the other castaways marooned on the large Antarctic island of Caprona. The expedition's ship, the Toreador, locates Caprona, and while the bulk of the crew attempts to scale the encircling cliffs Billings flies over them in an aircraft. Billings' plane is attacked by flying reptiles and forced down in the interior of Caspak.
He saves a native girl named Ajor from a large cat and a group of ape-men, and undertakes to accompany her back to her people, the fully human Galus. They travel north, encountering various creatures of the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras, as well as additional primitive subhuman races. The novel was adapted to film in 1977 under the direction of Kevin Connor by Britain's Amicus Productions. Discover a new way to read classics with Quick Read.
