Hailed by science-fiction doyen Arthur C. Clarke as “pure magic,” Dinotopia: A Land Apart from Time debuted in 1992. Now, 20 years later, the magnificent sequel to James Gurney’s bestseller finally returns to print. Enhanced by more than 160 full-color illustrations, The World Beneath follows an intrepid band of Dinotopians — members of a society in which humans and animals peace- fully coexist — as they explore the mysterious depths of an unexplored island. For this 20th Anniversary Edition, Gurney provides new hand-illustrated calligraphy, an Afterword, and a special section of behind-the-scenes studies and maquettes. Also includes a new Foreword by dinosaur paleontologist M. K. Brett-Surman, Ph.D. A Calla Edition, originally published by Scholastic, Inc., New York, 1995
