Re: DINOSAUR digest 474
I read Tyrannosaur Canyon and did not like it; there were many odd bits of plot
devices and the novel did not do a good job of making me suspend my
disbelief... in particular, and I may be remembering wrong, but the bit about
how the online version of JVP reviewing and publishing within three days was
the final straw.
