Thank you Netgalley, Aria & Aries | Head of Zeus -- an Aries Book and Douglas Preston for the eArc of Extinction.

I really enjoyed this " Not Jurassic Park " . It's so much more than just dinos! The combination of the thriller side of the plot with them dinosaurs, made for a really engaging read and I couldn't put it down. which led me to buy the audio book so I could listen on the go. I also found the audiobook really immersive.

David Aaron Baker narrated Extinction and even though it's the first Ive heard of David, I loved his voice.

Good, but not great. Listened to this one as an audio book, and it kept my attention, but the story felt a little predictable and unoriginal.
