The Dinosaur Hunter: A Novel Audiobook

" This was a weird story with disjointed characters and generic dialogue. Definitely my least favorite of the Hickham books! "

" I had a hard time getting started but once i got past the first couple of chapters ,I couldn't put it down.Was up late a few nights with this one "

" Homer Hickman's novel, The Dinosaur Hunter a story about a group of people who look for dinoaur bones. There is mystery, a one sided love story, and various interaction between all the characters, and a little murder to keep things hopping. Overall not a bad story. It was just that ... a quick easy read. "

" Listened to this one in the car on the way to work. Slow pace - perfect for the car. "

" It's an easy read. Some interesting info on dinosaurs. It kept my attention although there were some scenes that felt silly. "

" We checked this book out at the library for another one of our long road trips. Hickam does not disappoint. We really enjoy his writing style, characters, and adventures. This was different than the WWII books in materials, but still engaging. "

" Good book... my only complaint is wrapping up all the mysteries and having so much action in the last 20 pages... I felt that for all the detail during the book, the wrapping up could have been spread out a tad... "

" Now I want to visit the Badlands in Montana! "

" I read this a few weeks after reading Remarkable Creatures, by Tracy Chevalier, which also involved fossil hunting. I liked the Montana fossil hunting setting of this book, but the plot and characters were just kind of so-so. "

" Fast-paced mystery in Montana with paleontologists. Was fun. I like the cowboy sense of humor. It also made me snort-laugh how many female characters wanted to bed the main male character. Dudes - if you need an ego boost, and you own a pair of cowboy boots, this is the book for you. "

" Not quite what I expected but very entertaining. "

" Interesting story combining the wide open spaces of Montana, paleontology, and villians who turn out to be Russian mob. It takes 200 of the 300 pages to get to the heart of the storyline. It finished well, though, so I suppose it was worth the build up. "

" sort of a romp. enjoyed it. a paean to the west, individualism, survivalism, but fun. "

" I liked it. It was a little hard to get into at first, but then became a real page turner. also some interesting facts about dinasaurs as well woven into the story. "

" Written by the author of "Rocketboys," which was the basis for the movie, "October Sky." It was pretty good...slow at first, but it picked up in the middle. "

" Excellent book. The story has an unusual locale and an unusual plot line. Main character has a wry wit and the paleontology was very interesting. "

" Hickam writes well. I like the characters, a little too much dinosaur info for me. "

" The first half was more interesting to me than the second half. However, I must say, I'm not overly interested in dinosaurs. For a reader who is, or for a reader who likes science, I think this book would be great. "

" Genevieve, I think you would enjoy this story set in eastern Montana. "

" Was not good, was not bad. A quick read about a ranch where dinosaur bones are discovered. Trouble from bad guys follow and basically you end up with a so so story about how to run a ranch and learn a bit about dinosaurs. "

" Audio -- I like the all that had ti do with the dig and the ranchers. the back story could have been left out. if the sexual content was taken out this could be a pg read. "

" This is an interesting novel about Montana, ranchers, dinosaur hunters, and crime. The characters are realistic and draw you into the story. Things go awry on a dinosaur dig and many people show they are not who they seem to be.<br/><br/>I enjoyed this book, and give it a good recommendation. "
