In a world destroyed by greed and power only the strongest survive. In the wilderness, death lurks as bands of raiders, and recreated monsters, seek easy prey. Against threats both human, and prehistoric, Chris Spencer must survive enemies from all sides, and all species. With the help of a man with no history, and no memory, Chris faces his toughest civilisation. Working in the biggest city he is tasked with clearing the unwelcomed visitors preying on the residents. Dinosaurs on one side, politics on the other, the Hunter must use his wits, cunning, and instinct to survive.

Sometimes a book takes you completely by surprise. I remember a couple of years ago a friend urging me to read Red Rising, me saying Sci-fi wasn't really my thing. Long story short, I listened to the audio, and then the following five books all within four months! (They're amazing!)
My point is, on the face of it, this book didn't seem like my kind of thing. But I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Set in the future, where dinosaurs have come back and humanity lives a divided life. Some people live in the country, in small settlements that are vulnerable to attack. Others dwell in dwindling cities, seemingly thingking themselves above those locked out of their high stone walls.
Chris Spencer is a hunter, a man who earns his living seeking out those who hunt people in the dark. He's good at it too. Despising city dwellers, he keeps himself to the open country, never staying in one place for long. That is until he is summoned to the City, where he will face his most fearsome adversary yet.
What follows is a strong action adventure novel, with well realised characters and an engagingly written plot. There are some opportunities within the book. I never quite got an understanding as to how this world got to where it was (or where within that world we were) but even so I really enjoyed the tale.
As the old saying goes, never judge a book by its cover.

Dino Book
I would have given this a higher rating, but the ending was just a fizzle compared to the rest of the book. It just died. There is a sort or cliffhanger so maybe the second book will take off where this one ended. Do recommend this book. Looking forward to any sequels.
