Sci-fi book series about time travel, taming dinosaurs, and alien psychics

Science Fiction & Fantasy Asked by Immortaldarius on March 17, 2021

This is a series of books that starts off with a bunch of humans being abducted and sent back in time roughly 65 million years. They start to build a civilization and take dinosaurs to help out. They are also able to climb very tall cliffs and glide on air currents to travel and scout.

Unbeknownst to them, they were sent back in time by aliens trying to prevent a galaxy wide takeover from other aliens, as it was found out too late that humans have some sort of innate resistance/ability that can stop these would be conquerors.

The other issue is that the timing of everything will make it so that after the humans wipe out the alien invaders, they will in turn be wiped out by the asteroid that kills off the dinosaurs.

It almost sounds like Pliocene Exiles by Julian May, but not quite. Troublemakers get sent back in time, but get stuck between two alien factions that inspire legends of Faeries and Goblins.

This sounds very much like the "Time Takers" series by Andrew Saxon - humans are collected from different times in history (the protagonist is from our time, but there are also ancient Romans, Atlanteans, and people from a post-apocalyptic future, etc.)

By the second book "Taming a Planet" (which is a generation later) they have tamed dinosaurs they ride.

The third book "Extinction" deals with the asteroid issue.

But I am not sure this was ever published as a physical book...
