I took out "The Land That Time Forgot" by Edgar Rice Burroughs. What do you guys think of it if you've ever read it? I just got it from the library today, and found it just by browsing the shelves. Any thoughts??

Yes, typical Burroughs he wrote the Tarzan series along with many other novels. If you like it try to find a copy of "The Lost World" by Arthur Conan Doyle or any of the Jules Verne novels. I would also recommend H. G. Wells. Great books to read in the summer as you can travel to all sorts of exotic worlds and have adventures that we can only dream about. Enjoy!

Burroughs is one of my favorite authors. His writing is simple and direct. He keeps your attention, moves fast, and give use the right amount of detail.
If you like "Land", I would recommend his "Mars" books (The first, A Princess of Mars, is one of my favorite books.) Good Scifi
Also, surprising, his early Tarzan novels are excellent, and have a scifi twist to them that you never see in the movies.

I think that there was also a movie.... If I remember the book correctly there were dinosaures and cavemen.
