Reviews

'... I enjoyed his book, and recommend it.' A. M. Lucas, Archives of Natural History 'Fallon has introduced readers to a wealth of dinosaur-adjacent literature, some of which will be familiar but much of which is guaranteed to be new to readers. And he has accomplished an exciting coup, by convincing twenty-first-century readers to see something as utterly familiar as a dinosaur as a strange collection of beasts, a category still in negotiation.' Alison Laurence, Victorian Studies
