Circa 1980's prehistoric intelligent reptiles starving and time traveling and terraforming present day earth...
I've asked for help on identifying this novel about a year ago but nothing. So here goes again.
Ancient intelligent lizard species running out of food to the extent they are eating their own eggs. They invent time travel to the present and commence changing the environment for their own purposes. They are so superior to humans they appear as ancient "lords" or "princes" and they have vast powers.
If I recall correctly, the terraforming is along the lines of the strange growths in Dean Koontz' "The Taking". The revelation about the provenance of the lizards comes quite late in the novel.

Hi there! First of all - did you ask here, on this site? If so, please edit the previous question; if you posted it from a different account, please follow these instructions to merge the two. If you asked somewhere else, no probs, but it'd be cool if you could provide a link :D
