Hasslein Books is now offering Timeline of the Planet of the Apes: The Definitive Chronology on Amazon.com, for only $29.95.
Planet of the Apes, a classic post-apocalyptic sci-fi drama, has riveted audiences with its stunning performances, brilliant make-up work, resonant soundtrack and powerful statements on humanity, science and religion, as well as the jaw-dropping revelation in its legendary final moments. But the 1968 film was just the beginning of the story.

Four sequels, two TV series, a 2001 film re-make, and more than a dozen novels and 120 comic books later, Planet of the Apes remains a living, breathing mythos. To commemorate the franchise's 40th anniversary, Hasslein Books brings you Timeline of the Planet of the Apes, a 322-page, softcover volume that explores:
• How a small-scale simian rebellion grew into a planet-wide reversal of fates for humanity and apekind
• How the apes acquired sentience and the power of speech—while man descended into mute savagery
• Where the plague that ravaged the planet originated, and the effects it had not only on man and ape, but on other creatures
• The many unique simian and human cultures that spawned around the globe in the aftermath of a nuclear holocaust— and how the Statue of Liberty ended up in pieces on a desolate beach
Timeline of the Planet of the Apes examines these and other questions, presenting every recorded event of the Planet of the Apes saga in its proper chronological context—from long before Caesar's birth to far beyond Earth's destruction. This book covers every film, television episode, cartoon, novel, comic, short story and audio-tale produced under the Planet of the Apes banner over the past four decades—including a number of rejected or unpublished tales unavailable to fans. No other reference book has covered the saga's expanded universe so completely.
Along with a painstakingly detailed timeline spanning millennia, this volume features a gallery of more than 350 cover images, a recommended viewing/reading order, an examination of time travel in the Planet of the Apes mythos (both on screen and in print), and a title/creator index of published fiction—plus, insightful notes discussing preliminary and discarded story concepts, inconsistencies and discontinuities, unpublished lore and other fascinating trivia.
Timeline of the Planet of the Apes: The Definitive Chronology, featuring brilliant cover art by illustrator Patricio Carbajal, is now available at Amazon.com, at a price of $29.95.
