Greg Bear has recently released a new novel entitled DINOSAUR SUMMER. The
novel takes place in an alternate universe where the events of THE LOST WORLD
really happened and the dinosaurs have become part of a travelling circus.
Ray Harryhausen and Willis O'Brien play key roles in the novel and
if you enjoy adventure fantasy, I highly recommend that you dash out and
pick this book up. He has his own web page which features original
art, his writing credits, and an extensive biography. If he ever appears
in your area, make sure you see him. He is an extremely personable
individual with a wealth of knowledge. It will certainly be worth your
while. I had the unique good fortune to meet him during the 65th
Anniversary KING KONG event and if you want to read more about that meeting
