Book Reviews of Dinosaur Planet
Book Review: Dinosaurs or Dragons?
Summary: 4 Stars
Anne McCaffrey was my favorite author through middle school and high school, and she still sticks in my top 10. She has the ability to create an entire environment with believable characters, especially strong female leads (which seem to be lacking in most novels in the genre). If you have read her other books, this one should be on your list somewhere.
Dinosaur Planet, and its sequel, though not as good as her Pern Series, are definitely still great sci-fi and worth a read. This is a really good choice for any 10-15 year old who is looking for some well-written, if older, sci-fi/fantasy novels or someone starting to branch out from the standard. It's a relatively short novel, and definitely well within the abilities of the average middle-schooler (and even some elementary school kids).
Summary of Dinosaur Planet
Kai and his beautiful co-leader Varian had a simple enough mission--to catalogue fauna and flora and search for new energy sources for the Federated Sentient Planets. But what they discovered was awesome. The creatures were larger, the resources were smaller, and the rescue ship had disappeared....United States Books
