Back to the Stone Age is a book by Edgar Rice Burroughs, first published in 1937. It is the fifth instalment in Burroughs’ imaginative Pellucidar series, a cycle of prehistoric adventures set in a vast world found at the Earth’s core. Known for shaping early fantasy adventure fiction, Burroughs continued to refine his trademark blend of heroic quests, lost worlds, and primeval dangers in this volume. The story follows Lieutenant Von Horst, who becomes stranded in Pellucidar after a perilous expedition goes disastrously off course. Surrounded by towering reptiles, ancient tribes, and the harsh realities of an untamed Stone Age realm, he must navigate brutal terrains, forge unlikely alliances, and rely on courage rather than modern conveniences. The narrative captures the thrill of exploration, survival, and discovery while keeping the central mystery of the journey intact. As with much of Burroughs’ work, this novel reflects his enduring influence on classic adventure literature, inspiring later generations of writers and shaping the popular image of exotic, prehistoric fantasy worlds. Readers who enjoy pulp fiction, daring escapades, and immersive world-building will find this story a compelling return to a bygone style of storytelling.
