Mason Paladin had found himself transported to a dinosaur infested world by an unknown alien benefactor. Preparing his entire life for an apocalypse of some form, he felt himself prepared, mind body and soul. When he woke up and faced down a monstrous Tyrannosaur, he discovered those responsible for his nightmare had implanted his brain with a device which kept him young and the beasts at bay. Then he met Piper, a marvelous woman equally as lost. A mighty storm took her and his new daughter from him, leaving him utterly alone for two centuries. Then a trio of figures appeared before him. Their existence was impossible. But, there they stood; people he knew were the captain, first officer and doctor, straight out of a fantasy world from his youth. Had his mind finally warped into oblivion, or had he really gone where no man had gone before him.
