Mammoth

The discovery of a perfectly preserved frozen mammoth in the Canadian wilderness gives wealthy visionary Howard Christian the opportunity of a lifetime: to clone it. But what really piques Christian's curiosity is what he finds next to the mammoth: a metal box-and the mummified body of a man wearing a watch. Working to discover the box's purpose and clone the mammoth, a top physicist and an elephant veterinarian will be flung thousands of years into the past and back again-bringing a baby mammoth along for the ride-in this "imaginative and engaging" adventure that shows "Varley . . . in top form" (San Francisco Chronicle).
