On the prehistoric island of Caspak, Bradley and four companions march north along the barrier cliffs, into a realm of pterodactyl-men and a mystery reaching to the very source of Caspakian life.

Edgar Rice Burroughs's 1918 novel concludes his Caspak trilogy with a rousing lost-world adventure. Colorful, imaginative, thrilling. Read it for classic Burroughs, a dinosaur-and-danger romp through a strange island where evolution itself works in uncanny ways.
