Summary

A space cloud of unknown composition is on a collision course with Earth as the world holds its breath.

The anomaly sails through the solar system, and the International Space Station, along with three astronauts and one cosmonaut, are thrown back to the Cretaceous period, where dinosaurs roam Earth hunting prey and great pterosaurs patrol the skies.

Supplies on the station run low and desperation takes hold, but morale grows when the crew sees a bright multi-colored light blinking on the surface below. The astronauts decide to evacuate the station in the Soyuz escape capsule and investigate. As the adventurers struggle to survive in the primordial jungle, the party discovers artifacts of an ancient civilization that could help them find the light beacon. If they can stay alive long enough.

Poor storyline

I should be awarded a medal for listening to the end! A very thin and poorly executed story given the premise. I felt sorry for the narrator having to bring the story to life and the one dimensional characters - a Cosmonaut who is only capable of uttering niet and da, a German astronaut who sounds like a German officer from a B movie, and a good ole American boy, who is the titular leader, well he would be he’s an American.

Could do better, see me after class.

Boring as all hell

I expected this to be a horror thriller with deadly dinosaurs. It's almost finished by the time the first and only person dies from a dinosaur bite. Even then is through anticlimactic infection from the bite. I'm angry I listen to the hole 8 hours of people learning how to hunt and make cups out of bamboo. This author honey potted me with the cover
