What if those ancient creatures so beloved in fiction, myth, and science had not disappeared? What if they were real? What might have been developed to handle them, and how might man have felt about the thundering giants in yesterday's, today's, or tomorrow's worlds. Imagine a sanctuary established for dinosaurs that displaces humans. What if Raptors were used on a distance planet as scouts for the new colony? Could Dodo birds have left a record about what happened to them? Dragons helping settlers? Inconceivable! A conqueror learns a hard lesson from a goddess and two children create their own 'monster'. Lovely, unique, tales of lumbering giants of old, ancient rulers of the skies, and many others once thought to be myth or legend appear here in Extinct?
