Tom Hopp's new dino novel

[TomHopp@aol.com]

Hi all,
   Just a quick commercial note to let you all know that my second novel, 
DINOSAUR WARS: COUNTERATTACK, is now available from bookstores and 
Amazon.com. Its pages contain feathered megaraptors, a microraptor acting 
scansorial, some rather hairy looking ornithiscians, and my answer to the 
scaly dinosauroid, the feathered Kra, back to challenge mankind for ownership 
of the planet.
   For a gander at a megaraptor fully cloaked in falcon-like feathers, you 
can check out the book's cover (painted by yours truly) on the web page 
below, or follow the links to read some sample pages or buy the book or 
e-book.
   Here's the blurb from the B&N.com web page:

Dinos are coming for dinnerâand youâre on the menu!
The young hero and heroine, Chase Armstrong and Kit Daniels, survived the 
first Dinosaur War when a human-sized, intelligent species of dinosaurs 
returned from space to reclaim their home worldâOUR WORLD! Now, the tentative 
peace between the invaders and the US military is breaking down. Our bombers 
and tanks are on the move again, as are the fighting machines of the Kra 
armies. In the midst of the renewed turmoil, Kit and Chaseâs new romance 
breaks down as well. Now they must each try to survive alone. Will they find 
their way back together, or end up as some carnivoreâs grisly meal? The 
science behind Dinosaur Wars: Counterattack is fully up-to-date. The deadly 
Megaraptors, larger than Spielbergâs Velociraptors, are fully covered in 
feathers, the way paleontologists now know they were. Other great beasts of 
the Cretaceous Era are portrayed in accurate detail as well. A good story, 
though, hinges on interesting human characters. I hope you will find the 
young adventurers, Kit and Chase, to be the sort of heroes who make you want 
to join their quest for survival and love. Think 'Star Wars meets Jurassic 
Park,' and youâll have a feel for what the book is all about. Counterattack 
was written in adult-level English and is suitable for all ages to enjoy. If 
you are a fan of action, adventure, dinosaurs, and a little light romance, I 
hope you will find this new book to your liking. âThomas P. Hopp 

So there you have it, my second foray into science fiction publishing. This 
mailing list has been a never-ending source of inspiration for these 
writings. So far, so fun!
