He is guided to a very special and magical spot by kindly Mr. Shama, who is not quite what he seems (actually a wizard). While at the spot, Keegan accidentally releases 12 Minosaurs (ancient miniature friendly dragons) and the vengeful wrath of their arch nemesis, Moa Constrictor, a creature as evil as the Minosaurs are kind. Keegan is saved from the clutches of Moa Constrictor by the morphing Minosaur, Greanwold. The two become instant buddies and join forces to help the Minosaurs save themselves and the world from the evil plans of the Moa Constrictor.

Book Description
"All the seashore is lined with numbers of stone idols, with their backs turned towards the sea, which caused us no little wonder, because we saw no tool of any kind for working these figures." So wrote, a century and a half ago, one of the earliest navigators to visit the Island of Easter in the South-east Pacific. Ever since that day passing ships have found it incomprehensible that a few hundred natives should have been able to make, move, and erect numbers of great stone monuments, some of which are over thirty feet in height; they have marvelled and passed on. As the world's traffic has increased Easter Island has still stood outside its routes, quiet and remote, with its story undeciphered. What were these statues of which the present inhabitants know nothing?... Whence came the people who reached this remote spot? Did they arrive from South America, 2,000 miles to the eastward? Or did they sail against the prevailing wind from the distant islands to the west?...

Book Description
In 1839, on the basis of a single mysterious fragment of bone from the other side of the world, the great English anatomist Richard Owen reached the conclusion that it came from an unknown gigantic flightless bird. Despite this being shortly before the time of Darwin and the great evolution debate, many initially thought Owen's claim preposterous. A huge new bird that couldn't fly? Like an Ostrich? Ridiculous! Owen's piece of bone is the starting point for Richard Wolfe's fascinating story of scientific intrigue and personality clashes in one of the nineteenth century's great natural history discoveries.
