Extinction Peak by Lucas Mangum

Action Packed Dino Fun

Before I get into the book, you have to know that this story is flipping fun. It’s entertaining as hell and everything I could ever want. Extinction Peak is fast paced and exhilarating, full of killer dinosaurs, giant monsters, and firefights. All across the US sinkholes open up and release dinosaurs of every variety, choosing mass chaos and hysteria. During the bloodshed the Dinos cause, siblings Deandra and Johnny Merriweather make their way towards a wealthy senator’s home to steal his cache of money so they can be rich when the world goes back to normal. Unfortunately for them, the senator has also survived the catastrophe and has already grabbed the world by the balls and made himself a sort of post-apocalyptic king. Mangum has created the best thing to happen to dinosaurs in fiction since Michael Crichton. I cannot stress enough about how fun this book is. The action alone is worth at least a dozen rereads, but that may just be my biased towards awesome dinosaur fiction. Regardless, Lucas knows how to write a damn good book that will have you hoping for a sequel.
