What fire bolt from the galactic dark shattered the Earth eons ago, and now hides in that remote cleft in the southwest U.S. known as Tyrannosaur Canyon?

 

Not my cup of tea -

nor mine.

Well, this is certainly a change of pace. Not a bad start, but I'll have to see what the rest of the week brings.

i think this sounds more like a science fiction book, i think i'll skip it.

I'm with you, not my cup of tea. Doesn't this one belong in Science Fiction?

As odd as it is - I don't like the different font being using on emails!

Not my cup of tea, either.

Agree with other readers re new format - very difficult to read the broken sentences with any degree of continuity. Also agree this should be listed under science fiction.

Is anyone enjoying this book?

I am enjoying this story, and I am pretty surprised that everyone is so negative. Would you consider Jurrasic Park to be science fiction?? I don't, and I think this is probably going to end up along the lines of a book like that--it is just fiction. That is the whole point of this club right, try different things out. If you are only exposed to the kind of books you read anyway what would be new and interesting. There are lots of things that fit under the heading of fiction.
If you don't want to read it, hit delete, as Suzanne always says...but I am definitely giving this one the week to help me decide if I would like to finish it.

So far, I find this interesting. I think that it is more mystery than science fiction. If it is not your "cup of tea," that is surely your choice, but I'm interested.

I think that is the route it will take too...a mystery seems to be in the making. I am still being pulled back to read this. Anxious to see what the end of the week brings.

I think I will pass on this one.

usually enjoy reading Douglas Preston, but found this book to be boring and hard to get through. So, I put it down and never finished it. Too slow and plodding.

But I am enjoying this and will finish the rest of the book.

Like others here in Fiction, I was more drawn to the synopsis of this week's Non-Fiction selection and thought Tyrannosaur Canyon would get a more appreciative audience in Science Fiction. But as soon as we got off the moon and into the canyon, I was drawn in. I could not only see the landscape all around but really felt like I was right in the canyon.

It sounds like I would like this even tho I didn't get to read the 5 days of the book.
