In this explosive new series, we will discover more monstrous, more horrific and more bizarre that we've ever known before.The opening up of areas such as China, the Arctic and the Saraha as well as new finds in South America has led to a huge increase in our knowledge. We will find out what makes the most efficient killer, how the biggest creatures on earth managed to survive and why some dinosaurs looked more like aliens. With incredible graphic-novel style artwork, 3D effects and fascinating scientific discoveries, this series will bring to life a whole new world.

Donald R. Prothero's science books combine leading research with first-person narratives of discovery, injecting warmth and familiarity into a profession that has much to offer nonspecialists. Bringing his trademark style and wit to an increasingly relevant subject of concern, Prothero links the climate changes that have occurred over the past 200 million years to their effects on plants and animals. In particular, he contrasts the extinctions that ended the Cretaceous period, which wiped out the dinosaurs, with those of the later Eocene and Oligocene epochs. Prothero begins with the "greenhouse of the dinosaurs," the global-warming episode that dominated the Age of Dinosaurs and the early Age of Mammals. He describes the remarkable creatures that once populated the earth and draws on his experiences collecting fossils in the Big Badlands of South Dakota to sketch their world. Prothero then discusses the growth of the first Antarctic glaciers, which marked the Eocene-Oligocene transition, and shares his own anecdotes of excavations and controversies among colleagues that have shaped our understanding of the contemporary and prehistoric world. The volume concludes with observations about Nisqually Glacier and other locations that show how global warming is happening much quicker than previously predicted, irrevocably changing the balance of the earth's thermostat. Engaging scientists and general readers alike, Greenhouse of the Dinosaurs connects events across thousands of millennia to make clear the human threat to natural climate change.

In the year 2202, dinosaurs have been discovered on the planet Cretasus. The major factions in human politics rush to establish a military presence, even as pioneers from across the galaxy come to farm, hunt, and domesticate the dinos. T-rex families raid mining colonies, dino ranchers herd stegosaurus (the new white meat), velociraptor tribes plot with their human allies to secure prime hunting grounds, and warp pirates ambush safari hunters who have come to hunt the biggest game.
