What a Chase

A!though this story was exciting it did not completely explain why or how the mutation occurred in the first place. There was the usual fighting and Betrayals, bloodthirsty villains, animals and plants, even the heroes were not so heroic but they came through in the end. Worth a read.

Elliot Kittner and his team are sent to capture a terrorist, unfortunately they get more than they bargained for. The island group contains more than terrorists, there are creatures straight from the past, who are looking for revenge. The Ceratosaurus being the apex predator. Good story that moves at a nice pace, as man tries to outwit dinosaurs.

has it all dinosaurs, man eating plants.

Lot of action, I’ll say suspense but might be the wrong word. Dinosaurs, giant birds, insects, plants good & bad mercenaries, treason, and a love story in the making and it all tied together even more surprising.

This was a quick entertaining read. I’ve read and enjoyed a few of Michael’s books. You’ll get engrossed in his stories.

Can't be Michael Cole dino story

I don't know how he does it but this author continues to create fascinating and relatable characters facing fresh new prehistoric adversaries. I wouldn't mind a Sadie and Lewey sequel. They were an interesting duo.

Ceratosaurus was another outstanding icky bug. It had a great cast of victims and characters and was very similar to the GORE sector books. Plenty of action, short, to-the-point, and an addictive read. Highly recommended.

This was worth a read, but it didn't seem up to par with other beast-reads I have read. I couldn't quite get into the characters - or even the beasts attacking them. If you have other books by a favorite author, go with them.
