Tyrannosaur Canyon (Part 1) - Douglas Preston (CD)
Title: Title: Tyrannosaur Canyon (Part 1) Author: Douglas Preston Genre: Literature & Fiction / Mystery & Thrillers / Action & Adventure / Science Fiction Format: CD, 5 CDs (Unabridged) Synopsis: A stunning new archaeological thriller by the New York Times bestselling co-author of Brimstone and Relic. A moon rock missing for thirty years... Five buckets of blood-soaked sand found in a New Mexico canyon... A scientist with ambition enough to kill... A monk who will redeem the world... A dark agency with a deadly mission... The greatest scientific discovery of all time... What fire bolt from the galactic dark shattered the Earth eons ago, and now hides in that remote cleft in the southwest U.S. known as Tyrannosaur Canyon? The stunning new novel from the acclaimed bestselling author, recently hailed by Publishers Weekly as better than Crichton. Review: Publishers Weekly At the start of this improbable thriller from bestseller Preston (The Codex), innocent bystander Tom Broadbent is riding his horse through a New Mexico canyon when he comes upon prospector Stem Weathers, who's just been shot. Before Weather dies, he gives Tom a notebook filled with mysterious numbers, asking him to pass it on to his daughter. Taking this assignment to heart, Tom puts himself and his wife at ever greater, more pointless risk as he tries to deliver the notebook. Soon the Broadbents find themselves the target of the prospector's assassin-a jailbird hired by an evil British paleontologist seeking the perfectly preserved remains of a Tyrannosaurus rex-as well as a rogue government operative who's trying, with a commandeered army squad, to kill almost everyone in the book. Lively yet ridiculous, the narrative loses all plausibility as it becomes clear that the characters do what they do solely in order to keep the plot churning to its conclusion. The recent real-life discovery of a Tyrannosaurus rex fossil containing soft tissue makes this particularly timely. Agent, Eric Simonoff at Janklow & Nesbit. $200,000 marketing campaign. (Sept.) Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
