My Review

I love my dinosaurs. Especially the mean and nasty ones. And you get plenty of those in this collection.  And I enjoy anthologies. You come across some authors you have enjoyed before and some new ones to explore.

It’s bloody mayhem from story to story. The dinosaurs rule and any man is a fool to think otherwise. Many characters meet their fate and a lucky few survive.

I found all of these enjoyable. Some were quick, bloody fun. And then were those that I wanted to continue. That I would have loved as full length books so I could connect even more with the characters, get more of the horrible, rampaging beasts and more of the atmosphere that had me so excited.

Something I took away from these stories was the new way the dinosaurs were presented. It’s a modern look at how dinosaurs are perceived now. How they might have really looked. It was long believed that they were cold blooded creatures and looked similar to lizards. You get something much different with most of these and I have a new respect for how terrifying they must have been.

I’m not one to play favorites so I won’t list any here. I will say some new authors have found their way to my must read more from list.
