Dragonology: The Complete Book of Dragons (Ology Series)

Product Information

The European Dragon has never been as respected as the eastern dragons. Some humans thought that this dragon was actually the devil! Thus, it has never had temples or burnt offerings to enjoy. This book, like the other books in the Ologies series, is assigned a fictional "author" who then acts as the narrator of the book. Dr. Ernest Drake is the fictional author and owner of the original Complete Book of Dragons, with Dugald Steer being the creator of Drake, and the writer of this and several other books in the series. It is written in an encyclopedic manner rather than following any particular narrative, while also giving the reader puzzles in the book and small notes as if the fictional writer had sent them that book. Dragonologists, both amateur and academic, will hail Dr. Drake’s lavishly illustrated, ‘rediscovered’ guide. Interestingly, not all the taxa within this clade appear to be very closely related, and it's likely that there are several other (now extinct) taxa whose discovery might help better resolve their phylogenetic relationships.

The largest drakes are big enough to maintain near-constant body temperatures via gigantothermy, and the best example of this is the enormous titan drake ( Dirosuchus maximus). Measuring 13-16m in length and weighing an impressive 7-9 tons, these marine reptiles are slightly larger than Tyrannosaurus rex, and are the largest members of the Draconimorpha and by extension, the largest extant reptiles.
