Summary

Stan has been hunting for fossils since the age of six. Now, in the summer of 1954, he hears a story he cannot forget: the skeleton of a huge creature—a veritable dragon—lies deep in an Alpine glacier. And he is determined to find it. But Stan is no mountaineer. To complete his dangerous expedition, he must call on loyal friend Umberto, who arrives with an eccentric young assistant and expert guide Gio.

Time is short; the four men must descend before the weather turns. As bonds are forged and tested, the hazardous quest for the Earth’s lost creatures becomes a journey into Stan’s own past.

A Hundred Million Years and a Day is a mesmerizing story of nature, adventure, and of one man's determination to follow his dream, whatever it may take.

A hundred million years and a day

This was an excellent book! We follow a man obsessed with finding a dragon in a cave,through the turmoiled childhood to where he ended up in the end.We meet his friends and family.Some we like. Hugh Weller-Poley was a very good narrator. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
