Book description
Fifty years after professor Challenger's discovery of the Lost World,
America's last dinosaur circus has gone bankrupt, leaving a dozen
avisaurs, centrosaurs, ankylosaurs, and one large raptor abandoned. Now
a daring expedition plans to do the impossible: return the Jurassic
giants to the wild. Two filmmakers, a circus trainer, a journalist, and
a young Peter Belzoni must find a way to take the dinosaurs across
oceans, continents, rivers, jungles, up a mountain that has been
isolated for 70,000 years... Then if they make it, all they'll do is
face all the prehistoric wonders, dangers, and terrors of the Lost
World. Greg Bear is one of the world's leading hard SF authors. He
