About this book

In this thrilling adventure beyond time, a band of explorers must find a way to bring living dinosaurs back to a Lost World. 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 impossible­return the Jurassic giants to the wild. Two filmmakers, a circus trainer, a journalist and young Peter Belzoni must find a way to take the dinosaurs across oceans, continents, rivers, jungles and up a mountain that has been isolated for 70,000 years. If they make it, all they'll have to do is face all the prehistoric wonders and terrors of the Lost World!
