Story
Rex Walker always wanted to be like his father: a daring, adventurous man, traveling the world in pursuit of mysterious relics. While teaching anthropology at a Boston college, Rex attempts to bury the past, until he discovers a hidden clue he can’t ignore. With the help of a former student, he teams up with an alien-obsessed billionaire, and they search for the fabled Bridge. As an unidentified object nears Pluto, speculation surges. Some hail it as the homecoming of a distant alien race, and this cult is unwavering in their efforts to usher our world into a new era.

That’s going to be tricky if she’s the only person left in the world.

The wall just didn’t look right. Alex has been trying to cope. Life after his deployment had been rough. His ex-wife thought he needed to stop disappointing their daughter. She was right. He would try harder. With six hours before his little girl’s fourth birthday party, he saw the anomaly. One wall was too short. Plenty of time to tear out a panel and look behind it. He found a brick wall. His house wasn’t made of brick. Behind that was another just like the first. He still had time. When the second wall came down, Alex stood and stared at the shining doorway.

The Institute agrees and Nora Kelly, much to her annoyance, is tasked with the job. Instead of the evidence of a crashed UFO, Nora's excavation immediately uncovers two unknown murder victims buried at the site.

Publisher's Summary
Dinosaur is the first novel in the New World series, brilliantly brought to life by BBC's Chris Barrie (Red Dwarf).
The leader of a sinister political group hatches an insane plan to save humanity. Fighting to stop them could doom us all. When every action and decision may determine the fate of everyone who has ever lived, the right choice is not always clear. However, for one man, there is no choice at all...
Captain James Douglas sets off on a mundane transport and supply mission that quickly descends into disaster. Leading a fledgling society through a wild and hostile world was not part of his brief. Nor was the custodianship of all human life, history, and endeavor. Worse still, an enemy hides among his passengers, while the knowledge of a boy, just days out of school, may be all that stands between mankind and extinction.
The crew of the USS New World is lost almost 100 million years ago in Mid-Cretaceous Gondwana. It is the time of the dinosaur...for now.
Critic Reviews
“A highly suspenseful time-travel adventure series, combining a clever mix of detailed prehistory and history throughout - not to mention some great bad guys. The twists and turns really keep you guessing, while the darkness and humour really keep you reading. Not to be missed.” (Black Sheep Books)
“Spaceships, wormholes and dinosaurs! Don't miss it.” (Stephen Baxter, author of The Long Earth)
“Epic! Full of big ideas and clever protagonists! A thrilling tale told on a huge scale. Llewelyn clearly knows - and loves - his dinosaurs, a knowledge and passion that shines through. The result is a big, bold adventure. Classic science-fiction, dinosaurs, crashed spaceship, what's not to love?” (Simon Guerrier)

Love Chris Barrie, but boy did the story go no where
Chris Barrie’s talent knows no bounds and he truly shows off all of his voices and his acting prowess. The story however could’ve been soooooooo much shorter. For a book called Dinosaur there weren’t many dinosaurs. Basically it’s a very long who dunnit and in the end I couldn’t do honestly care less

Sardonic fun in the Cretaceous
I haven't finished this yet but I am enjoying it. The narration/acting is kind of goofy with lots of different voices come from the British accented narrator. The science fiction is a pretty engaging story of a mission to Mars getting sabotaged and winding up stranded in the Cretaceous with the saboteurs onboard. The tone of the book is a little goofy. Definitely some British humor going on. Maybe a little over the top, but better than no sense of humor at all! I'm definitely looking forward to Book 2 already. Keep 'em coming!
UPDATE: I still haven't quite finished it but I'm well into the last chapter and still enjoying it. I would definitely buy the next book in the series and I hope it arrives quickly!

I enjoyed every minute of this book, so engrossing I just wanted to keep on listening through the night. The book is beautifully written and the narration by Chris Barrie is quite simply brilliant, Chris uses his expertise to give every character their own voice and personality, so much more than just a reading, Chris gives a performance. The only problem I have now is I can't wait for the next book(s) in the series, please hurry it on here when it's available Audible.
