When Tharn sets out to rescue his beloved Dylara, he does not dream that the whole Cro-Magnon world stands against him, a sweeping adventure in a savage prehistoric age.

Howard Browne's 1948 novel is a rousing lost-world and prehistoric adventure in the Burroughs tradition. Vivid, thrilling, gloriously pulpy. Read it for a full-blooded caveman epic, a mighty hero's perilous quest to win back the woman he loves, amid the beasts, tribes, and dangers of a vividly imagined Stone Age world.
