Prepare to dive into an uncharted world of prehistoric terror and pulse-pounding survival.
It is the height of World War I. When a torpedo rips through the hull of a British passenger ship, the survivors-including American shipbuilder Bowen J. Tyler and the courageous Lys La Rue-find themselves in a desperate fight for their lives. Against all odds, they capture the very German U-boat that sank them, taking its crew as prisoners. Lost at sea, low on supplies, and driven thousands of miles off course, the treacherous ocean currents pull them toward Caprona-an unmapped, unscalable island continent in the deep South Pacific.
But the true nightmare is just beginning. Navigating the submarine through a dark subterranean river, they emerge into a boiling inland sea teeming with monstrous life. Dinosaurs stalk the terrifying jungles, giant reptilian predators lurk beneath the warm waters, and savage missing links watch from the shadows. Sworn enemies must unite to survive this primordial hell, but in a world governed by the brutal laws of prehistoric nature, the greatest danger might still be the human capacity for betrayal.
