Dinosaur World Gladiator

by Adam Carter

As a reporter, Katarina Striker has a history of braving war zones to get the best stories. When she hears rumours that a famous gladiator – Sebastian Garrick – is travelling to a quarantined dinosaur world, she hires a camerawoman and sets off in pursuit. Garrick is hunting a ravenous dinosaur larger than any tyrannosaurus. Trailing him and his ego is Johann Bodwell – his servant and packhorse – who struggles with the problem of not being a genetically-enhanced superman.The more Striker learns of Garrick, the more she sees past the image of the famous sportsman. She discovers a naïve, vulnerable man being exploited from every angle, and finds herself riddled with guilt that she’s among those intending to profit from his exploits.A large beast with a tiny brain, Garrick can see none of this, for his only goal is to wrestle Gargantua and proclaim himself the greatest gladiator who ever lived.

About the author

I like to tell stories. Sometimes they have to be big, sometimes they work better small. I like to write serials which can be read without reading all the ones which came before. There's nothing more off-putting than a book you can't understand! I work in as many genres as possible and read anything I can get my hands on, but have an especial love of Edgar Rice Burroughs and Alexandre Dumas. They both understood stories should be fun. Primarily I enjoy exploring characters; and the best thing about continuing fiction is gradually changing characters with whom the reader can laugh and cry and love and hate. And finally I think every book has room for humour, especially when it's inappropriate.

Dino World

Adam Carter does it again. This book was fantastic. And the ending was a real twist. All is not what it seems on Ceres. A+. I was totally blown away. Well done. Looking forward to the next Ceres book. Maybe, learn who put Dino's there.
