Dragon’s Heir: The Archeologist’s Tale
Author and board-certified doctor Glenn Parris offers readers plenty to think about as he questions whether science got it wrong and that maybe dinosaurs didn’t become extinct—they just moved!
With engaging characters and an original premise, Dragon’s Heir features a cast of advanced, non-mammalian people known as the Efilu, who once lived on Earth during the age of the dinosaurs.
Faced with a worldwide catastrophe of their own doing, the Efilu gathered together the populations of every intelligent species on the planet and evacuated, leaving behind a small contingent of a single species—known as The Keepers and their leader, Dragon—to restore their dying world.
Some 65 million years later, an expedition of Efilu returns in search of a cure to a plague threatening their vast civilization. Instead of the barren world they expected, they find a fertile world overrun by mammals, and Dragon’s coven of Keepers is nowhere to be found.

Excerpts from Amazon reviews:
“…I enjoyed reading this novel very much. It has good characters, cool extraterrestrial settings, and sci-fi technology. I also enjoyed the return of the dinosaurs and the plot lines in the book that reflect issues in our own modern society. I recommend Dragon’s Heir to all readers…”
“Dragon’s Heir held my attention from the beginning. I felt a strong sense of connection with most of the non-human characters, and the creative tension as the plot built left me guessing, wondering who would prevail and how. Creating such a complete fantasy world is remarkable, and it’s to Parris’ credit that Dragon’s Heir gives us such rich history and texture. Clearly worthy of five stars. I hope to read a sequel soon!”
“From the very beginning, you will be quickly immersed into this author’s realm of fantastical characters and unique blend of sci-fi, fantasy, and science. The plot moves along at a captivating pace with plenty of action and interactions between dynamic characters. It will keep you wondering about several story arcs until the very end. Looking forward to the next book in the series!”
