Sobre este artículo
London: Robert Hale, 1978. Creasing and a couple of small tears to the edges of unclipped dustwrapper, the back panel of which is a bit grubby, minor bumping to spine ends and corners of black boards, some minor yellowing to the pages, and the book does smell a bit of being shut away in a cupboard or similar, but otherwise a not too bad tight copy of this hard-cover book. Part of the publisher's "Hale Science Fiction" series, the story deals with the discovery of a fossilised dinosaur in a clay pit in Bedfordshire. The creature is found with eggs which are all picked up except for one, which hatches out in the countryside and the resulting lizard-man type creature (hence the title) then proceeds to terrorise the area. The first novel by the author, a dentist in Bedford who wrote a few others back in the 1970s, one of which, "Child of Vodyanoi", was adapted by the BBC as "The Nightmare Man" in 1981. Signed and inscribed by the author on f/ep "For .... Kind regards and many thanks for all your help and interest. David Wiltshire, May 1978". Also includes a page from the Bedfordshire Times newspaper dated 9th June 1978 with an article on the author. Not a common book. I also have an unsigned copy with no dustwrapper which would be a little bit cheaper, please enquire if interested. 206pp.. Signed by Author. First Edition. Hard Cover. Good/Fair. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
