Customer Reviews

Tried to give this book 4 and a half stars . . .

This was a good book. I liked it all the way through. I think he should have done a sequel to it, telling what happened to the Dainid and Alyssa.

An awesome science fiction book.

Alyssa and her best friend, Caitlin, are on a dinosaur dig inthe midwest. After some eggs are dug up, strange occurances andattacks begin to take place. None of the attacked people die - they all become ill, and then vanish. Alyssa begins to wonder - are the victims turning into dinosaurs? Read this exciting book to find out. It was a fun, quick read.

AWSOME,CREATIVE, ALL THE WAY THROUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the idea of dinosours coming to life. At times in this book I wanted to laugh, others cry. Alissa (main charecter) is smart to think something is going on when an odd fern grows in the middle of the desert. This book has great twists like how Caitlin, Alissas best friend, becomes a dinosour. Just the right amount of adventure, horror, and fanstey. If you liked Mr. Peel's work with "Diadem" you're going to LOVE this!!

Awesome!

This was one hot book, dispite some of the cussing and crude violence. I can honestly say that I really loved this book.
