Otherlands (UK edition)
A dazzlingly original, lyrical and epic encounter with the Earth as it used to be.
What would it be like to visit the ancient landscapes of the past? To experience the Jurassic or Cambrian worlds, to wander among these other lands, as creatures extinct for millions of years roam?
Journeying backwards in time from the most recent Ice Age to the dawn of complex life itself, and across all seven continents, Otherlands immerses us in a series of extinct ecosystems.
Otherlands is a naturalist's travel guide, albeit one of lands distant in time rather than space, showing us the last 500 million years not as an endless expanse of unfathomable time, but as a series of worlds, simultaneously fantastical and familiar.
