Caspak Trilogy Series

Bowen Tyler, his reluctant crew and a blonde heroine, find themselves marooned in a nightmare world of mighty dinosaurs and bestial apemen who kill on sight. This is the lost continent of Caspak, a hot, dark and mysterious prehistoric world located somewhere in the icy waters of the Antarctic. Their only hope of rescue is a note in a bottle flung into the sea. The survivors persist and penetrate the heart of Caspak to find the incredible secret that claws, fangs and spears have guarded since the beginning of time.

It all starts with a message in a bottle, a cry for help from a lost world. Submarine manufacturer Bowen Tyler was on an Atlantic journey to Europe, when his boat was torpedoed by one of his own submarines. He manages to survive, along with his faithful dog, Nobs, and with a little help from a passing tug boat, capture the U33, the very submarine that he built, and that had torpedoed him. With the German crew and the English tug crew, they drift to a lost island, almost as big as a continent, where exist many animals long since extinct elsewhere, and where evolution is compressed to a lifetime. Through it all, he hopes to win the love of the beautiful girl he rescued in the English Channel, the lovely Lys La Rue.

The acclaimed author of the Tarzan series brings another fantastic world to life in The Land that Time Forgot. The story begins in the midst of World War 1, in the middle of naval attacks between the armies of various nations. On a submarine that had been captured in English Channel, the combatants from several countries fight for the ownership of the vessel. After a series of unfortunate circumstances, the submarine is sent off-course into the South Pacific, and then is even further rerouted to Antarctica. When the vessel runs out of fuel, the submarine makes its way into a strange passage under a mysterious island. The island is full of primitive creatures and plants that are evolving rapidly. As the submarine’s passengers begin exploring their whereabouts, they realize that this island is a glimpse into the past. The fully evolved humans have to navigate their surroundings and use what they can find to create the technology that will get their ship back on course. The World that Time Forgot is an adventurous and fantastical science fiction story and is a staple of the lost world genre. Burrough’s detailed creation of this world is immersive and will leave readers’ imaginations spinning.

After Bowen Tyler went missing and sent a message in a bottle letting the world know he was marooned on the legendary island of Caprona, his faithful secretary and friend, Tom Billings organizes a rescue expedition. They find Caprona; Billings makes it onto the island, and things go wrong immediately. The second of three stories about the lost world of Caspak.

Third and final installment of Burrough's Caspak series, takes on the adventures of Bradley and the other crew members of the U33 after Bowen J. Tyler Jr.'s disappearance from Fort Dinosaur in Book 1, The Land That Time Forgot. Bradley and his men fall prey to another humanesque species on Caspak, the terrible and terrifying Weiroo.
