About the event
In June the SciFi & Fantasy Book Club concludes our cycle of archeology & paleontology related texts with Cixin Liu's short novel The Cretaceous Past. Copies are available from the library in multiple formats.
From the publisher:
"When a Tyrannosaurus rex suffers pain from meat trapped between its enormous teeth, a nearby colony of ants risks entering the great creature's maw to make their own repast from the remains of the dinosaur's most recent meal. From this humble beginning, over the course of millennia, a symbiotic civilization achieves amazing advances, reaching dizzying heights in countless endeavors scientific and social, facing dangers and exploiting opportunities at every turn."
