Publisher's Synopsis
Bericus, an old planet in a far off galaxy, teeming with advanced life forms, is hit by a fierce asteroid storm. Fearing destruction of the planet iTon(c)(TM), our intrepid hero, becomes a Space Snail when he and his family seek their fortunes in a new world.
Their space craft crash lands on Earth in the Cretaceous Period, where the family are separated by an earthquake.
Stranded on a strange planet, iTon(c)(TM) is attacked by Dinosaurs and only saved by two small lizards.
When Earth is hit by the asteroid cloud that killed the Dinosaurs, iTon(c)(TM) and his new friends take refuge in a cave and go into suspended animation for 65 million years.
The Space Snail and friends awake in the 21st Century and are shocked by the environmental disasters they encounter. With a gizmo-packed shell, super speed as well, ingenious solutions to pollution and dedication to conservation, iTon(c)(TM)'s ready to help save planet Earth.
iTon(c)(TM) is amazed to discover that he is, when questioned, a walking and crawling history book about Earth. He was not aware that the computer in his brain had become active by a strong earthquake many thousands of years before he himself awoke. It had been storing information about happenings on Earth's surface all the time that he 'slept' on. Everybody learns a great deal more about history from iTon(c)(TM)'s computer as the story unfolds.
Joined by a seagull and a mole, the friends, along with iTon(c)(TM) tackle all issues that confront them on their quest to find his missing family, who he believes were also put into suspended animation.
Initially, iTon(c)(TM) is unaware that others also escaped from Bericus and landed on Earth. They seemhell-bent on spreading catastrophic disasters and destruction with terror-disks stolen and brought with them through space.
Are the group of friends capable of stopping these evil forces?
