4册目录：1-Dinotopia：A Land Apart from Time2-Dinotopia：Journey To Chandara3-Dinotopia：The World Beneath4-Dinotopia：First Flight 分册介绍：1.Dinotopia：A Land Apart from Time
Gurney's premise of an undiscovered island where a race of mystical humans co-exists in harmony with intelligent dinosaurs has been since reiterated over and over in numerous films and by scores of other writers. Now, Calla Editions brings Gurney's spectacular artistry to a new generation in this 20th anniversary edition. Digitally re-rendered from the original transparencies, Gurney's dramatic panoramas of Dinotopia and close-up character studies of its inhabitants both human and saurian take on new vitality. And as a tale of high adventure and discovery told as entries and sketches in journal form, Dinotopia presents a shipwrecked visitor's glimpse into an imagined social order, a culture, and even a cooperative interspecies technology that will satisfy lovers of fantasy and science fiction of all persuasions. This edition includes a new Afterword written by author James Gurney as well as a special section of behind-the-scenes studies and maquettes he used in developing his paintings." 2.Dinotopia：Journey To Chandara
Professor Denison, the intrepid 19th-century explorer, is back! Some time ago, the professor discovered a lost island where humans and dinosaurs dwell in harmony. Now the professor and Bix, his dinosaur companion, have been summoned to the forbidden empire of Chandara. But when they lose their invitation from the emperor, the adventurers must cross the border penniless and in disguise. A vivid narrative, accompanied by enchanting illustrations, traces their journey and its spectacular sights: a village composed of three ships propped up on end, a 50-foot-tall Brachiosaurus outfitted for firefighting, an Allosaurus tending its hatchlings, and other memorable scenes.A stand-alone sequel to the first two Dinotopia books, Journey to Chandara offers the perfect introduction to James Gurney's fantasy world for readers of all ages. Filled with magnificent full-color paintings, cutaway views, and mechanical diagrams, this newly expanded deluxe edition includes a behind-the-scenes featurette filled with rare insights from the author/illustrator. 3.Dinotopia：The World Beneath
The voyage of discovery that Arthur Denison and his son, Will, began in Dinotopia continues in The World Beneath. Professor Denison and Will have been living on Dinotopia for several years, learning the marvels of this lost island continent where dinosaurs and humans have coexisted peacefully for centuries, cut off from the rest of the world.Now Professor Denison decides to explore the natural mysteries of Dinotopia. He turns his attention to the ancient caves that point to a long-lost Dinotopian civilization that seems to have used a technology beyond any that the Professor has ever before encountered. His journey takes him deeper and deeper into the heart of Dinotopia, into the World Beneath. Little does he know that his quest to uncover Dinotopia’s deepest mystery will soon become a desperate race to save the very existence of the island.Beloved by a generation of readers, James Gurney’s classic story returns in this lavish edition from Calla Editions?. The artwork has been reproduced from new plates digitally scanned from the original transparencies. This unabridged, expanded edition includes 30 additional pages, including a new Foreword by paleontologist Michael Brett-Surman and an Afterword by the author with over 40 behind-the-scenes sketches and photos. 4.Dinotopia：First Flight
"Critics have gushed over Gurney's phantasmagorical creation, likening him to such venerated literary fantasists as Jules Verne, Wells, and J. R. R. Tolkien." — People MagazineJames Gurney's illustrated Dinotopia series has been an imaginative touchstone for a generation of readers of all ages. This new definitive edition of Dinotopia: First Flight brings together an extensive collection of James Gurney's stories, artwork, and story notes from the ancient origins of the land where humans and dinosaurs coexist. That peaceful world was forged on the flames of conflict in a dramatic Age of Heroes. First Flight tells a timeless tale of partnership and courage, where unlikely heroes cooperate to overcome the greatest challenge yet to face Dinotopia.This lavishly produced volume begins with an unabridged republication of James Gurney's influential 1999 story about the adventures of Gideon Altaire. Gideon escapes from his post as a drone pilot, befriends a small band of animal characters, and becomes the first human to fly on the back of a giant pterosaur known as a skybax. Together they challenge a bold attempt by the rogue leaders of Poseidos to overturn the tenuous balance between humans and dinosaurs.The second half of the book includes a bonus of over 45 new images, including never-before-published storyboards, concept sketches, and production paintings, plus new characters, stories, and backstory notes from James Gurney's creative archives. The supplement begins with a cinematic treatment about a character named Blake Terrapin, who leads the resistance on the ground while Gideon takes to the air.Together, the elements of this richly imagined volume combine to conjure a richly textured world, and will serve as an exciting companion volume to Gurney's other Dinotopia books. 内页图：

跨越时空的奇幻之旅：探索《消失的王国：失落文明的足迹》 一册饱含历史尘埃与未解之谜的宏伟巨著，带您潜入一个被时间遗忘的伟大国度。 《消失的王国：失落文明的足迹》并非仅仅是一本关于历史的陈述，它是一场深入人类集体无意识深处的考古探险。本书汇集了全球顶尖历史学家、语言学家、神秘学专家以及顶尖探险家的集体智慧与多年研究成果，旨在重构一个在史册上被刻意抹去，或因灾难而彻底湮灭的古代超级文明——“埃尔德拉文明”（The Eldran Civilization）的辉煌与衰亡。 第一部分：迷雾中的曙光——埃尔德拉的碎片记忆 本书伊始，我们将从零散的、看似不相关的全球性神话与考古发现入手。作者团队首先审视了遍布五大洲的共同洪水叙事、对“高耸入云的城市”的描绘，以及那些无法用已知技术解释的古代遗迹。 全球神话的共振： 深入分析苏美尔楔形文字中关于“天空之舟”的记载，与玛雅传说中“智者从东方而来”的叙事之间的惊人相似性。探讨这些共同叙事是否指向一个共同的“源头文化”。 地质学的悖论： 聚焦于南美安第斯山脉与西伯利亚冻土层中发现的，具有高度统一性的金属合金制品。这些制品的成分和工艺水平，远远超出了其声称的年代背景。本书将详尽展示高分辨率的X射线衍射分析图谱，揭示其中包含的稀有同位素的来源之谜。 失落的星图： 揭示一份被认为属于中世纪炼金术士的神秘星盘，其记录的星辰排列精度，比托勒密星表早了至少一千年。这是否证明了埃尔德拉人拥有超越时代的观测能力？ 第二部分：建筑的史诗——不朽的几何与能量的运用 埃尔德拉文明最引人注目的遗产，是其令人瞠目结舌的巨型建筑群。本书的第二部分将重点剖析这些“不朽的几何体”背后的科学与哲学。 声波塑形理论： 详细阐述“共振频率建筑法”。通过对秘鲁纳斯卡线条下方岩层微观震动的长期监测数据，本书提出了一个大胆的假说：埃尔德拉人可能利用极低频声波，将巨石从采石场“悬浮”并精确放置到位。书中附有国际声学实验室模拟搭建的模型视频截图（仅为文字描述）。 “活体”石材的秘密： 深入研究埃及吉萨大金字塔群中，某些花岗岩块的微观结构变化。这些结构似乎在数千年间保持了恒定的内部压力和化学惰性，仿佛它们并非被动材料，而是被“编程”过的结构体。我们首次公开了对其中一块核心石块进行同位素追踪的失败尝试记录，凸显其材料的“非自然”稳定性。 地下水网的智慧： 对撒哈拉沙漠深处发现的复杂地下引水系统进行地理空间重建。这些水道的坡度计算精细到毫米级，跨越数百公里的距离，全程无需任何机械动力。这不仅是水利工程，更是对地球流体力学深刻理解的体现。 第三部分：语言的迷宫——符号与思维的边界 如果说建筑是埃尔德拉的骨架，那么他们的语言便是其灵魂。本书的第三部分致力于破解这种失传的交流系统，并探讨其对人类思维模式的影响。 “元语”（The Proto-Logos）： 介绍一种在婆罗洲洞穴壁画中发现的、由几何图形和动态符号构成的复杂书写系统。语言学家认为，这种系统并非线性，而是“全息”的，即一个符号同时承载了时间、空间和情感等多重含义。 语义学的陷阱： 探讨为什么所有已知的文明在记录科学知识时，都会自然地退化为更易于传播的线性叙事。埃尔德拉人是否曾试图记录一种“不可被简化”的知识结构？本书展示了计算机算法在试图解析这些元语矩阵时的崩溃记录。 音乐与律法： 考察在亚速尔群岛海底遗址发现的“编码石板”。这些石板上布满了类似音符的凹槽，经现代乐器重构后，播放出的旋律引发了参与研究的动物强烈的行为反应，暗示了语言与自然界直接沟通的可能性。 第四部分：寂静的终结——大灾变与文明的遗产 最核心的谜团在于：如此先进的文明，是如何在一夜之间消失的？本书以严谨的科学态度，审视了所有关于“大寂静”的理论。 地磁反转的论断： 基于冰芯样本中的异常放射性沉淀物分析，本书提出大灾变可能与一次快速而剧烈的地磁极性漂移事件有关。这种事件不仅会摧毁技术设备，更可能对生物体产生深远的神经影响。 “自我放逐”的猜想： 提出一个最具争议的理论：埃尔德拉人并非被毁灭，而是主动选择了“退隐”。他们或许预见到某种不可避免的宇宙或地球周期性危机，并利用他们的顶尖科技，将自己转移到了一个我们尚未能感知的维度或深度避难所。书中首次曝光了一组被命名为“进入门户”的结构图纸。 我们的责任： 结语部分，作者呼吁当代社会正视这些失落的教训。埃尔德拉的衰亡，或许是对过度依赖单一技术路径的警示。他们的遗产，不是废墟，而是对人类智慧极限的永恒拷问。 《消失的王国：失落文明的足迹》是一部面向所有对历史真相、科学前沿和人类潜力抱有无限好奇心的读者的史诗级著作。它挑战您对“已知历史”的既有认知，引领您进入一个宏大、震撼且充满未解之谜的领域。本书不仅是阅读，更是一场需要您用想象力去填补空白的深度参与之旅。精美的全彩印刷，配以大量由国际探险队提供的第一手现场照片、精密测绘图表和专家手绘复原图，确保了阅读体验的沉浸感与权威性。
用户评价
评分
作为一位对纸张质感有着近乎偏执要求的阅读者，我必须盛赞这次纪念版的选材和印刷质量。大开本的设计在这里发挥了至关重要的作用，它完美地释放了插画的全部张力，没有任何画面被装订线吞噬的遗憾。纸张的选择非常考究，不是那种一味追求光滑的铜版纸，而是带有一种恰到好处的哑光质感，这使得即便是最浓重的色彩也不会显得浮躁或刺眼，反而增添了一种历史的厚重感和艺术原作的颗粒感。油墨的渗透度和色彩的还原度达到了极高的水准，特别是那些深邃的阴影部分，层次感丰富，完全没有出现偏色或墨点堆积的问题。每一次手指划过那些精细的线条和微妙的渐变时，都能感受到制作方倾注的心血。对于那些注重“阅读载体本身价值”的藏书家来说，光是把这本书捧在手里把玩，就已经是一种极大的满足了，这无疑是印刷工艺的典范之作。
评分我对这种跨越了时间和物种界限的想象力感到由衷的震撼。阅读这本书的过程，更像是一次深入心灵的沉浸式体验，它挑战了我们对“恐龙”和“世界构建”的固有认知。作者构建的那个世界观极其宏大且逻辑自洽，每一个场景、每一个物种的描绘，都充满了严谨的考据和浪漫的升华。你很难不被那种对未知世界探索的激情所感染。书中的叙事节奏处理得非常高明，它不是那种快节奏的探险故事，而更像是一部慢镜头下的史诗，用一种近乎冥想的方式，引导读者去观察、去感受那个共存的生态系统。它探讨了文明、共存与理解的主题，这些深层次的思考巧妙地编织在了那些令人惊叹的画面背后。每次合上书本，内心都会涌起一股强烈的冲动，想要拿起画笔，哪怕只是模仿一丁点那种光影的处理，那种对生命形态的敬畏感，是很多单纯的科普读物无法给予的。这简直就是一场关于“如果一切皆有可能”的美学宣言。
评分这份纪念版的出版，对于那些长期关注经典回归的读者来说，无疑是一份厚礼。它的“纪念”二字绝非虚名，它在保持原作精髓的基础上，进行了恰到好处的优化和提升，使其完全符合当代审美标准，甚至超越了当年的制作水平。这种对经典的致敬，体现在方方面面：版式的微调让阅读体验更加流畅，字体选择典雅而不失现代感，整体布局既尊重了插画的完整性，又兼顾了文字的易读性。它不仅仅是一次简单的再版，更像是一次对作品生命力的重新确认和加冕。我甚至开始期待未来是否会有关于其创作历程的深度解析附录，因为光是这些画面背后所蕴含的创作思维，就足以写成一本精彩的幕后故事。拥有它，就像是收藏了一段重要的文化里程碑，见证了一个视觉叙事巅峰的永恒魅力。
评分这本书简直是艺术的杰作！初拿到手里，那厚实的精装手感就让人爱不释手，那种沉甸甸的分量，仿佛握住了一块时间胶囊，里面封存着无数奇妙的想象。装帧设计本身就透露出一种对经典的敬意，细节之处的用心，比如封面烫金的纹理和书脊的质感，都让人感受到这不仅仅是一本书，更像是一件值得珍藏的工艺品。迫不及待地翻开，扑面而来的就是那令人屏息的插画。色彩的运用简直达到了炉火纯青的地步，既有油画的厚重感，又不失水彩的灵动与光影的变幻。每一个跨页都如同一个精心构建的微缩世界，你几乎能闻到远古森林里潮湿的泥土气息，感受到阳光穿过巨大的蕨类植物投下的斑驳光影。那些恐龙的形象，绝非传统意义上的凶猛怪兽，而是被赋予了生命、智慧与温情，它们与人类和谐共处，那种宁静而又充满生机的场景，让人不禁沉浸其中，完全忘记了自己身处何地。对于喜欢视觉艺术和精美图册的读者来说，这绝对是书架上不可或缺的一笔，每一次翻阅都是一次视觉的盛宴，细节之丰富，值得用放大镜来细细品味。
评分这本书的魅力在于它成功地架设了一座通往“失落的和谐”的桥梁。它不是一部简单的儿童读物，也超越了纯粹的艺术画册范畴。我发现，随着年龄和阅历的增长，每次重读，都能从中挖掘出新的层次和感悟。年少时，我会被那些雄伟的生物和奇特的建筑所吸引；而现在，我更多地关注到画面中那些人与非人之间眼神的交流，那种无需言语的理解与尊重，是当代社会尤其稀缺的品质。它温柔地批判了人类中心主义，以一种潜移默化的方式教育读者：多样性才是世界最宝贵的财富。这种普世价值的传达，做得如此自然而优雅，没有说教的痕迹，全靠场景的张力和情感的共鸣来完成。它成功地构建了一个乌托邦式的理想社会样本，让我们在现实的疲惫中，得以获得片刻的精神休憩和对美好可能性的向往。
