''Dinosaur Summer'' is a novel by Greg Bear, published in 1998. Tony DiTerlizzi illustrated the book. == Background == The novel is set in an alternate history in which the events of Arthur Conan Doyle's novel ''The Lost World'' actually occurred. The setting is based upon a large plateau ("El Grande" or "Tepui Grande") in Venezuela, where dinosaurs still live. Due to the capture and exhibition of dinosaurs, movie producers such as Willis O'Brien and Ray Harryhausen never succeed, since the public's interest is instead captured by living dinosaurs. However, due to deaths caused by escaped dinosaurs and difficulty in obtaining new dinosaurs, the dinosaur circuses slowly die out. The novel is implicitly set shortly after the Second World War. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dinosaur Summer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
