So, I wrote a short story featuring elements of the portal games, a pair of tyrannosaurus rexes (which my kids named), and a heap of terrible troodon. It also starred my kids. They loved it, and it was read and re-read aloud for more than a year.
This is part two of a summary provided by the Northaven Institute about the key events to the Battle of the Strand. Please check out part one for background information about the battle.
