Ancient Egyptian demon hunter and shape shifter, Pantha, is thrown across a Rift into the early twentieth century London, straight into the path of Jane Porter, American explorer, aviatrix and new wife to Tarzan.

Up against gods, monsters, Purgatori, and each other, the pair need all the help that ancient magic and modern aviation can supply to stop London from turning into a new hell on earth.

In his attempt to survive this struggle for power, Turok starts to learn why dinosaurs still exist… while the Sheriff of Nottingham gathers crusaders, archers, and a menagerie of thunder lizards to wipe out Turok’s merry men!
