Breakdown Press is proud to present a new, updated edition of Dougal Dixon’s lavishly illustrated work of speculative zoology, The New Dinosaurs.

Here, the meteorite missed. There was no cataclysmic impact on the Earth 65 million years ago, and the great reptiles of the Mesozoic lived on.

Thus begins a beguiling voyage of evolutionary discovery encompassing both geology and palaeontology, as scientist and father of speculative evolution, Dougal Dixon, takes the reader on a journey around a strange new world where the dinosaurs have spread into every corner of the globe. Dixon’s remarkable vision of the creatures that could have evolved to live on is both awe-inspiring and educational. Learn about the dangerous Northclaws, track gargantuan flightless Trombles across bleak tundra, meet the cunning Springe of the swamps and marvel at the lightning fast Sprintosaurs!

Dougal Dixon’s potent blend of up-to-date science and inventive fantasy, given life by superbly detailed colour illustrations, has produced a highly convincing alternative zoology and a wonderful, modern array of New Dinosaurs.
