The Skull
It had been waiting for centuries, buried in a place they called the evil ground--waiting for just one drop of blood to restore it to life. And when Nick Regan discovered the skull on a construction site, his life became a maelstrom of horror as the skull suddenly began to grow flesh--to come alive!
The Skull
It seemed as though a dragon, for it could be nothing else, had reared out of the ground in the night . . . and then been turned to stone by the first rays of the dawn sun. Starting with the living beast, the Megalosaurus herself, over 144 million years ago, The Skull follows the Marchant family from generation to generation, exploring key moments in history shaped by radical philosophical and scientific change. Whether feeding in a frenzy, seen as evidence of the devil, kept as a token of scientific heritage or used an easy way to make a quick buck, the Megalosaurus skull continues to change lives over millennia, long after her untimely demise. In this superb fictional tale, scientific and historical fact is blended with drama, intrigue, and life-changing scientific discoveries that not only affect the Marchants, but science, philosophy and civilisation as we know it.

This book shows how this once morbid trinket of death has been reinvented into the much-desired decoration by the trendsetters of tomorrow.
