The prehistoric Earth is dying. Thunderclouds roll across the skies, cloaking the land in darkness. The seas crash and boil as the rain turns to acid. The remnants of the Silurian race place themselves in suspended animation, deep below the surface.

One day they will awaken and reclaim their world…

A fisherman has been driven insane by something he saw in the caves. and the Doctor and Evelyn are not the only new arrivals, there is also a young natural philosopher by the name of Charles Darwin…
