Sounds like a must read. I'm curious about it to that extent. Legal proceedings might be too lengthy, but we have to expect them since its written based on a lawsuit. I'm just impatient to know why happens in the end. So, thanks for your interesting review.

It sounds like it has a good plot and I loved the dinosaur facts in the beginning of the book. Great review.

Although dinosaurs are not in my spectrum of interests, court room dramas are, and your review may have enticed me to read about a subject that I would have considered too complex. Thank you !

Wonder if Aaron Baker will be able to help his client and his twin brother prove that dinosaurs never existed? It's great to hear that this book surprised you that much! Glad it was well-written, and that the court process was easy-to-follow and informative. Also, I like that you found the characters to be well-developed and likable. This must have been a great novel for you to be excited to share it with others! Too bad that the court proceedings and testimonies were repetitive. Laws of physics, mathematics, and probability aren't topics that I'm interested in, but it's good to know that you were able to enjoy the novel! Thanks for sharing!

The lawyer seems to be in a dilemma to question his known facts about the extinct creatures, and how he handles the case that is an intriguing aspect of this novel. Thanks for writing an interesting review.

A story that centers around a courtroom does not sound interesting.

It's a strange idea trying to prove the existence of dinosaurs in a courtroom. Your review made this sound very interesting. Congratulations to the author for being chosen as BOTD. Thanks to the reviewer for your excellent review.

The title is appealing. Twin war and intelligent arguments in the court room sound excellent. I am curious as to how this will make me feel when I read it. Great review.

This sounds a unique and intriguing premise. I must admit that at first when I read the title 'The Dinosaur Lawyer' I imagined, for a second, a T-rex in a courtroom defending carnivore's rights. But the questions that this book raise is much deeper than my ridiculous imagination. Science and paleontology are fascinating subjects that Adam Van Susteren seems to balance them with a fresh aspect in his captivating novel. Thank you for your enthusiastic review!

I love legal drama and courtroom scenes. I also love books that are so interesting, I can't help talking about them. I haven't given the dinosaurs much thought, but with your great review I'm ready to dig in!

Quite an interesting story of attorney Aaron Baker in this book with title "The Dinosaur Lawyer" by Adam Van Susteren, who is hired by a Russian billionaire to prove that dinosaurs in fact didn't exist to win a defamation law suit. The plot sounds quite wonderful because attorney has to disprove the claim made by several scientist around the world having sufficient proof regarding the existence of dinosaurs.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.
