Out of Time's Abyss is an Edgar Rice Burroughs science fiction novel, the third of his Caspak trilogy. The sequence was first published in Blue Book Magazine as a three-part serial in the issues for September, October and November 1918, with Out of Time's Abyss forming the third installment. The complete trilogy was later combined for publication in book form under the title of The Land That Time Forgot (properly speaking the title of the first part) by A. C. McClurg in June 1924. Beginning with the Ace Books editions of the 1960s, the three segments have usually been issued as separate short novels. The third of these is treated in this article.

Out of Time's Abyss is a direct sequel to The Land That Time Forgot and The People That Time Forgot, continuing the lost world saga begun in the earlier stories. It connects the previous two instalments, bringing in characters introduced in each. Burroughs completes the revelation of his lost world's unique biological system, only hinted at in the previous instalment, in which the slow progress of evolution in the world outside is recapitulated as a matter of individual metamorphosis. This system forms a thematic element serving to unite the three otherwise rather loosely linked Caspak stories.

Upon the fourth day of September 1916, he set out with four partners, Sinclair, Brady, James, and Tippet, to go looking alongside the base of the barrier cliffs for a point at which they are probably scaled. Through the heavy Caspakian air, under the swollen solar, the 5 guys marched northwest from Fort Dinosaur, now waist-deep in lush, jungle grasses starred with myriad suitable blooms, now across open meadow-land and parklike expanses and once more plunging into dense forests of eucalyptus and acacia and large arboreous ferns with feathered fronds waving gently 100 toes above their heads. About them upon the ground, a few of the timber and within the air over them moved and swung and soared the countless varieties of Caspak's teeming lifestyles. Always were they menaced by way of a few frightful aspects and infrequently were their rifles cool, yet even in the quick time that they had dwelt upon Caprona they'd grow to be callous to danger, so they swung along laughing and chatting like squaddies on a summertime hike.

On Caprona, the Land that Time Forgot, all of the world's savage past still lived. Here were dinosaurs and flying reptiles, here were the most primitive of cavemen, and the last of the Bronze Age barbarians. But there was one more secret that the claws and fangs and sharp-edged spears guarded most of all. This is the story of the man who tried to find that final secret. When Bradley, the adventurer, dared to cross the last terrible barrier to the heart of Caprona, he entered a world of wonder, terror, and danger beyond the imagination of any man--except Edgar Rice Burroughs.
