5.0 out of 5 stars Page-turning pulp action! May 2, 2012

By Chad Stevens

Format:Kindle Edition

Do you hate books that take a chapter or two to gain some speed? If so, you'll like Dinocalypse Now. The cover is how the book starts -- a dinosaur invasion. DN starts at ramming speed and doesn't slow down. Two-fisted heroes, dinosaurs, and more all deliver action that's worth every penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two-Fisted, Page Turning Adventure! May 22, 2012

By M. Bentley

Format:Kindle Edition

Dinocalypse Now by Chuck Wendig is an excellent pulp novel. The first part of a trilogy that is rife with interesting characters, interesting locations and amazing adventure. If you enjoy over the top adventure this book is for you. If you enjoy intelligent Gorilla's that happen to be professors, this book is for you. If you like the idea of a psychic dinosaur invasion, this book is for you.

It is a quick and fun read. Just like it should be.

4.0 out of 5 stars A return to the grand tradition of Pulp Adventures May 5, 2012

By Kieren

Format:Kindle Edition

Dinocalypse Now is a grand return to the style of Pulp Adventure. Silly, impossible, scientifically questionable, all true, but none of it matters. It is fun, witty, clever and packed with action, adventure and even a little bit of romance.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who is into light hearted action and adventure.
