Resumen del Editor

The Mexican civil war had been grinding on for so long that the United States resorted to using private contractors—mercenaries—to prop up the failing Mexican Army. One of the many things the Mexican Army failed to protect was Pangaea, the famed animal park in remote northeast Mexico, a symbol of rampant capitalism. All the creatures inside were killed at the time. At least, that's what was reported.

For his estranged son Michael's high school graduation, hotel mogul Roger Rudd splurged on a rare and expensive hunting trip in Mexico, hoping it would bring them closer. To get there, they hitched a ride down on one of the contractors' helicopters, picking up Tina Echevarria, a beautiful and feisty Mexican graduate student, along the way.

But when the helicopter crashes in the Sierra Madre Oriental mountains, its combat-seasoned contractor crew, led by Irishman Seamus O'Malley, will have to lead the disparate group on a cross-country scramble, trying not only to evade guerilla fighters, but also the prolific and savage offspring of the artificially created animals once filling Pangaea. Animals thought to be eradicated a generation before, when Pangaea's walls were breached. Animals called theropods by the park officials . . . but known to the rest of world as dinosaurs.

A story about hunting dinosaurs and gorilla warfare!

I had a long business trip planned and I chose this read because of the dinosaur on the cover. The story is more about survival than actual dinosaur killing. I cared about the characters and the situation that they were in was very interesting!

The performance from Gary Bennett was great. The voices for each character was different and he spoke the Spanish words very well.

I really enjoyed this book!

I really enjoyed the story. The characters were well done. I’d like to hear some more stories along this line. The dinosaurs were more believable than Jurassic Park.

Oh fun and entertaining

This was a great book to listen to on your commute to work. I read books to escape from the real world and this book was perfect. Just what I needed.

Jurassic Park on steroids. Fun, believable, entertaining!

Great action, characterizations, humor, plot. Tarr is an undiscovered genius! More, we want more! I have everything he wrote. Waiting impatiently for the next tale!

No suprises

Story followed the formula of these stories. In the end the good guys win bad guys lose. The stars of the story were the dinosaurs,stole the show when they appeared. Save for them this they book was pretty much the same as others in this genre.
