>>25177998I don't hold Chricton to too high a standard but the prose in Jurassic Park is shockingly bad. I appreciate the way it tries to exploring some bigger ideas but it might be the worst prose I've ever readThe only other work of dinosaur related fiction I can think of is Bradbury's A Sound of Thunder which is fun. I once wrote some stuff from the perspective of a Spinosaurus in the midst of the minor extinction event from the oceans going atomic in its time but I'm not sure I was really getting at much substance. I wish I knew how to draw, the material is more suited to that medium
