Book excerpt: This epic fantasy debut plunges readers into a gritty world of court intrigue and dinosaur battles: “a cross between Jurassic Park and Game of Thrones” (George R. R. Martin). Paradise is a sprawling, diverse, often brutal place—one formed by the Eight Creators to play out their games of passion and power. In Paradise, lords and ladies vie for power as dinosaurs range the land and take the skies. And while some of these fearsome creatures run wild, others are harnessed as weapons of war. Thus we are plunged into Victor Milán’s world of The Dinosaur Lords, a place of dynastic rivalries, religious wars, and byzantine politics, and clashing armies of dinosaur-mounted knights. During the course of one of these epic battles, the mercenary Dinosaur Lord Karyl Bogomirsky is defeated through betrayal and left for dead. He wakes, naked, wounded, partially amnesiac—and hunted. And embarks upon a journey that will shake his world.

Download or read book Uncovering Dinosaur Behavior written by David Hone and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-11-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How scientists are unravelling one of the most tantalizing questions in paleontology Our understanding of dinosaur behavior has long been hampered by the inevitable lack of evidence from animals that went extinct more than sixty-five million years ago and whose daily behaviors are rarely reflected by the fossil record. Today, with the discovery of new specimens and the development of new and cutting-edge techniques, paleontologists are making major advances in reconstructing how dinosaurs lived and acted. Uncovering Dinosaur Behavior provides an unparalleled look at this emerging field of science, presenting the latest findings on dinosaur behavior and explaining how researchers interpret the often minimal and even conflicting information available to them. David Hone begins by introducing readers to the fundamentals of dinosaur biology, diversity, and evolution, and goes on to describe behaviors across the whole range of species and groups, from feeding and communication to reproduction, sociality, and combat. Speculation about dinosaur behavior goes back to the earliest scientific studies of these “terrible lizards.” Hone traces how pioneering science is opening a window into prehistoric life as never before, and discusses future directions of research in this thrilling and rapidly growing area of paleontology. Written by one of the world’s leading dinosaur experts and featuring accurate color recreations by paleoartist Gabriel Ugueto along with a wealth of photos and diagrams, Uncovering Dinosaur Behavior is a foundational work on the subject and an invaluable reference for anyone interested in these amazing creatures.
