Synopsis

Another ‘ MAMMOTH’ production! History’s most cherished and enduring, undying monsters are on the loose in PALEOWORLDS REIMAGINED . Prepare for a nostalgic trek into Dinomania's 'far side.' For this eclectic survey, choice segments from the now rare and former Dinosaur World fanzine are preserved. Via 1990s personal interviews with dinosaurian scholars and popularizers, enjoy scientific and fictional perspectives highlighting our fascinations with ‘prehistoric monsters’ and their skilled creators. Read reflections on Godzilla, Tyrannosaurus , Charles R. Knight, paleoart books, Atlantis, paleo-apocalypses, and considerably more. A sample of ‘fan-sci-fi’ will further entertain you. This is BOOK SIX in the acclaimed ‘ Out-of-the-Fanzines’ paleontological series, penned in collaboration with wife Elizabeth Russell Debus. This nifty, nerdy niche nook of dinosaurian necromancy is a ‘must read’! ALLEN A. DEBUS is a retired environmental chemist and member of the G-FAN Hall of Fame who has published widely in the realm of popular paleontology, prehistoric monsters and science fiction. This is his 14th book. Half of his titles are available through McFarland & Company, Inc., Publishers. He and Elizabeth reside in Hanover Park, Illinois. ELIZABETH RUSSELL DEBUS is a retired, bilingual federal employee with a broad financial services background. She accompanies Allen on many adventures encompassing fossils, dinosaurs, Godzilla and other eclectic interests.
