Publisher's summary

Australia’s outback hides a mysterious canyon. Hidden deep within is a forest of pine tree that dates from the Cretaceous Period. A megacorporation sends in a team of experts to research this canyon for botanical riches.

The expedition enters a no-man’s land formed 100 million years ago when Australia was still attached to Antarctica, and dinosaurs ruled the super-continent. But the canyon has more prehistoric and dangerous species than anyone could have possibly imagined.

Trapped and terrified, unarmed and unable to communicate topside, the team’s extraction deadline is six long hours away.

The frantic race for survival is on.

A Tad Bit Aggravating

I’m always scouring this site for dinosaur fiction, which is surprisingly scarce. As such I was very happy to stumble onto this one. I really wanted to love this book too, but unfortunately it fell far from the mark. My biggest gripe is that the characters were so outwardly unlikable. I couldn’t care less whether they made it out alive or not because they were all so annoying, selfish, self-centered, and just plain stupid. It was like a fabricated Hunger Games for corporate greed. And although there were prehistoric creatures there wasn’t a big selection, pretty much the same one or two species over and over again. But by far, the bit that turned me off the most was the endless repetition of the phrase “Debbie Downer.” I swear it was in every single chapter multiple times. To the point where I began to cringe in anticipation. I guess this had something to do with the author’s first name being Deborah, but that’s only a guess. I even considered going back and counting but I really didn’t want to have to listen to it again. Once was more than enough.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
