A wonderful, fantastic series. The authors do a good job to keep their writing and voice congruous throughout the various books.

This is one of my favorite books, and the ONLY book I've ever finished reading, then immediately flipped back to the beginning and read again. It's very engaging, and every character, be he human or tyranosaurus, is very well fleshed out. ( )

This is a sequel to James Gurney's "Dinotopia", about a near inaccessible island somewhere in the South Pacific, where dinosaurs never went extinct, and for the most part have evolved to an equivalent intelligence with man - and, in some ways, a superior civilization. The era is the late 1800's, when a pirate crew has accidentally blundered onto the island, and seeing the fabulous wealth of gold and jewels, and the dinosaurs which would be a major attraction anywhere in the world, determine to make their fortune, in the process kidnapping young Will Denison and a few saurian friends of his. The book actually reminds me much of something Edgar Rice Burroughs would have written, although there is not a Tarzan-like character to be found. Regardless, the adventure is the equal of most anything Burroughs wrote. ( )
