Reviews

[Saskia (Smitie) · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was my first dive into this series and even though this is part 3, it is easy to understand the plot. I did feel like I missed some background information, but it wasn't ruining the story of this book. I really liked the Dinosaur world and the culture of the Mutata and Gairk. The time travel aspect is also quite creative with timelines mesing up and random craziness during the time storms. I still have part 4 to read and if part 1 or 2 crosses my path I will definitely read them as well.
