About the Author Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950) is the creator of Tarzan, one of the most popular fictional characters of all time, and John Carter, hero of the Barsoom science fiction series. Burroughs was a prolific author, writing almost 70 books before his death in 1950, and was one of the first authors to popularize a character across multiple media, as he did with Tarzan s appearance in comic strips, movies, and merchandise. Residing in Hawaii at the time of the attack on Pearl Harbour in 1941, Burroughs was drawn into the Second World War and became one of the oldest war correspondents at the time. Edgar Rice Burroughs s popularity continues to be memorialized through the community of Tarzana, California, which is named after the ranch he owned in the area, and through the Burrough crater on Mars, which was named in his honour.Casil is a 1984 graduate of the Clarion Science Fiction Writers Workshop at MSU. She received her MFA from Chapman University in 1999. She teaches at Chapman University.

Last and Best of the Caspak Series By Randy Stafford Despite an ending that is far, far too neat and unbelievable in its chronological relation to the first two books in the series, this is the best of the lot. Burroughs tamps down his love of coincidence and provides some interesting - if incompletely worked out - ideas. But then Burroughs was never an author known for rigorously working out the implications of his premises.What Burroughs does deliver is romantic adventure. Yes, like THE PEOPLE THAT TIME FORGOT, this novel's hero, Bradley from the first novel, accidentally, inevitably falls in love with a native woman he rescues. The two are fellow prisoners in Oo-Oh, dubbed by Bradley as the City of Human Skulls. Their captors are the Wieroo, Caspak's most advanced humans. Not only do they have wings, but, unlike every other human group on Caspak, they have writing and textiles. They also, in bootstrapping their evolution and competing with the other humans on the island, developed a cruel culture dedicated to spreading the orthodoxy of their thought. (I suspect we are to see a parallel to the Prussianism of the villainous U-Boat commander from the first book - who makes a reappearance here.) Their religion is based on advancement by murder, and they really do like building out of skulls. Bradley's adventures among the Wieroo are good, exciting stuff.Burroughs also is more explicit here about some of the details on how human development works on Caspak, a land where most humans start out as tadpole-like critters in ponds and, barring accident and bad genes, become human. It's a three-quarters baked idea here but still interesting.This novel probably works better if you read its immediate successor, The People That Time Forgot, first.

Formula has become stale By Kat Hooper Originally posted at FanLitIn Out of Time’s Abyss, the last volume of Edgar Rice Burrough’s CASPAK trilogy, we learn what happened to Bradley, one of the adventurers we met in the first novel, The Land that Time Forgot. As we expected, Bradley has frightening adventures on Caspak, is nearly killed by lions, bears, tigers, dinosaurs, etc, and he saves and falls in love with a beautiful young damsel in distress.In this installment, we meet the Wieroo, the most highly evolved species on Caspak. Their form and society isn’t at all what the American and European adventurers would have expected. We also learn the rest of the mystery of the strange evolution that has happened on Caspak. Since this is Earth instead of a fantasy world, it’s all too far-fetched to believe, but that’s okay because we weren’t really expecting or demanding more from a lost world story.The plot of Out of Time’s Abyss could have been enjoyable, but its problem is that, except for the episode with the Weiroo, it’s nearly identical to the previous two CASAPAK stories, The Land that Time Forgot and The People that Time Forgot: white man fights prehistoric creatures and falls in love with the adorable native girl he’s protecting. At this point, the formula which has worked well before has become stale.Blackstone Audio’s version of Out of Time’s Abyss was read by Brian Emerson who does a great job. The CASPAK trilogy was published in 1918 so you can find both a print and an audio version in the public domain.

Light Reading By David Stapleton Out of Time's Abyss is the third book of the Land that Time Forgot series, preceded by the Land that Time Forgot and the People that Time Forgot. It continues the story of the World War I German submarine captured by a combined allied group that gets stranded in a mysterious pre-historic land. The story is typical, light fare, something you might have expected from a black and white pre-history movie. A bit melodramatic at times, naïve at others. But so what! I've been reading and re-reading ERB for decades and while we aren't talking classics of literature, the stories are fun to read.Burroughs tackles the issues of evolution in this series, condensing the scope from millions of years to mere generations. Darwinism was still being debated at the time this was written, so it provides a glimpse of the shocking impact and disbelief in certain circles. A fun afternoon read, or something for a pre-teen with an appetite for adventure. (While you can read this book separately or out of sequence, I wouldn't recommend it, too many references to what has happened in the prior books.)P-)
