Most books I review are non-fiction. But a few are fiction and are either authored by big name writers whose books I bought either through Amazon or their affiliate Audible, or that I already had in my library or whatever.However, I do get some free books through Amazon Vine or, occasionally, direct from authors who are seeking honest reviews.I warn those writers in advance that I review books as a service to book buyers, not book writers, publishers or marketers. Thus, it is clear that if I don't like a particular book, I will so state.Dinosaur 4, though, is in a class by itself. I feel as though I have discovered a writer who is destined to greatness on the order of Michael Crichton, Stephen King or, just maybe, Isaac Asimov.I don't relish putting such pressure on a new writer, because, as a writer with his first novel, Jones has not received the benefit of a professional editor such as the big name authors cited above. Having said that, I am clambering for more books in this category.Dinosaur 4 needs to be made into a blockbuster hit!Dinosaur 4 starts just a little slow, but once I reached page four or five I found it quite difficult to set down for such trivial pursuits as my day job, supper, or sleep.Again, in case I've not made it clear, Geoff Jones is on his way to superstar status as an author with Dinosaur 4, the best science-fiction thriller since Jurassic Park!I would pitch this book to Hollywood as Jurassic Park as written by Stephen King.
