If you're fans of dinosaur books for adults like Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park and Lost World, must read adventure books like Greig Beck's To the Center of the Earth series, or amazing action stories a la Steve Alten's Meg franchise, you're going to LOVE the Kronos Rising series!
Synopsis
30 years have passed since the destruction of Paradise Cove. Since then, pliosaurs the size of whales have wreaked havoc on the world’s oceans.
Despite tragic losses, Garm Braddock and his brother Dirk wage a bloody war of attrition against the voracious marine reptiles: Garm from the helm of the anti-biologic submarine Gryphon and his brother from the top-secret military research facility known as Tartarus.
In spite of ongoing attempts to destroy them, the prehistoric predators that rose from the ashes of Diablo Caldera continue to multiply. They are bringers of death, and via more than just their deadly jaws. Their blood contains a primeval pathogen so virulent that, left unchecked, could spell the end of mammalian life.
Meanwhile, in the icy darkness of the deep, an evil as ancient as the dinosaurs stirs in response to the changes in Earth’s oceans. Rising hungrily to the surface, it brings with it an intellect as cold as the abyss and an irrepressible need to destroy and devour.
And conquer.
Kronosaurus is back in . . . the Kronos Rising series!

Good story idea badly written.
I agree with other reviews that the AI narration is awkward and distracting at times, and is not a substitute for a decent reader.
While the story line and plot were good, they were lost in unnecessary details…long conversations that had nothing to do with the plot, tediously long and overly detailed descriptions of animals killing other animals, and back stories that went on way too long.
The characters were just not likable…unrealistically strong, fit, stubborn to the point of stupidity, offensive, tortured by past events, and frankly dumb. It was hard not to wish the monsters would win.
However this book totally bogged down when it got to the sex scenes…they were tediously long, laughably unrealistic, and disgusting. I ended up skipping over them. Why did the author feel the need to put in such nonsense?? They had nothing to do with the story line and seemed amateurish. The constant references to the sexual tension between inhuman characters was a constant distraction.
I finally gave up on the book and returned it. The story got lost and it just got too tiring waiting for it to progress.
