Written by Michael Crichton, published after his death, follows Johnson as he goes on a hunt for dinosaur bones.
I really enjoyed this historical fiction novel. We got to meet Marsh and Cope and learn about the bone wars, which I never really knew. These two men did amazing things for paleontology.
We also got to meet a lot of historical figures (whom I will not name), which was interesting. This was a western novel, and I would definitely read more westerns written in this style.
As far as the audio went, the narrator for this book did a wonderful job. He put you back into the 1800’s, and I honestly thought that Johnson was a real person until I went and looking up more information and found out he wasn’t….
If you like westerns, or just well written novels, give this a shot.
Do. It.
