(918) Tyrannosaur Canyon by Douglas Preston

It is amazing to me that while the dinosaurs were extinct millions of years ago, yet we have gathered up a huge amount of knowledge relating to them. Many little boys went through years of sponging up specific information on dinosaurs.

When I saw them in the Smithsonian Museums, I hardly gave them much thoughts. In this book, Preston managed to weave much more information into an interesting story. There were dinosaur hunters. If dinosaurs were found on private land, then they could be auctioned in open international markets.

Is there life in outer space? That is an age old question. For every space mission, every precaution has to be taken to protect earth from alien life form. In this story, the scientist Dr. Melodie Crookshank did not mess up in her experiments, humans could live on without any threat from runaway alien virus.

In the end, a few soldiers died apart from the two bad guys. It was tragic. But for the rest of the folks, everything ended well.
