Dinotopia, A Land Apart from Time: 20th Anniversary Edition (Calla Editions)
Description
When James Gurney’s Dinotopia: A Land Apart from Time first appeared in 1992,
it was immediately hailed as a fully imagined world of the caliber of J. R. R.
Tolkien’s. Gurney’s premise — of an undiscovered island where a race of
mystical humans co-exists in harmony with intelligent dinosaurs — has been
since reiterated over and over in numerous films and by scores of other
writers. Now, Calla Editions brings Gurney’s spectacular artistry to a new
generation in this 20th anniversary edition. Digitally re-rendered from the
original transparencies, Gurney’s dramatic panoramas of Dinotopia and close-up
character studies of its inhabitants — both human and saurian — take on new
vitality. And as a tale of high adventure and discovery told as entries and
sketches in journal form, Dinotopia presents a shipwrecked visitor’s glimpse
into an imagined social order, a culture, and even a cooperative interspecies
technology that will satisfy lovers of fantasy and science fiction of all
persuasions. This edition includes a new Afterword written by author James
Gurney as well as a special section of behind-the-scenes studies and maquettes
he used in developing his paintings. Read more
