A Fascinating, Good Read.
A good slice of home (Earth), past and present, on an alien world. Some elements reminisent of Jurassic Park, but don't let that fool you. Especially with the Neanderthals and other pre-modern people. Here, they are not depicted as a bunch of grunting, primitive "cave men," but as an intelligent people whose emotions and sense of spirituality are more...

Humans, Neanderthals, and Dinosaurs on a distant world
Future scientists from earth used DNA from fossils on a distant world so humans, neanderthals, dinosaurs, and other creatures from earth's past live together. Humans have enslaved neanderthals and it's up to the half human, half neanderthal hero to free them.
