Review Summary

Tom Topecki, one of the world's leading paleontlogists, discover the largest intact triceratops fossil ever found. But this fossil is no ordinary fossil, having been contaminated by an alien probe. A horrible accident at the dig leaves many dead and Topecki mutating into a creature of frightening familiarity. In the meantime, the Earth is infected by a galactic virus that threatens to destroy the planet, and only T'top, the mutated creature, appears to have the resources to stop the destruction. The battle to save Earth ensues, but the cost to T'top is a journey to a different reality and a new theory of human spirituality is born.
