Facts are only facts until they’re proven not to be. This book seems to follow my motto of “Question Everything”. Thanks for the excellent review.

An attorney takes on a case he knows is unwinnable, but the tables turn as he starts to believe that dinosaurs never existed, as his client does. The story follows the courtroom battle to prove that his client is right.

The Dinosaur Lawyer by Adam Van Susteren is a #Courtroom #Drama that revolves around the story of attorney Aaron Baker who is hired by a Russian billionaire, Roman Aristov, to defend him in a suit brought on by his twin brother, Maxim. Baker must prove that the dinosaurs did not exist to exonerate Aristov from a defamation case.

I'm glad you enjoyed reading this book. Thanks for the review.

I can't really get what actually could be the author's purpose by writing such a book on dinosaurs filled with maths, science, and history. This is definitely a theme I haven't come across earlier and I am not really sure if I would be interested to read this. Thank you for the review!

I haven't read legal drama before. Hmm, I think I did but it still focused on romance part. Anyway, I will still read this and give it a try. Thanks for the review.

At first the cover page is beautiful, I like it. What a novel? The story is really different from others. I'm very curious about the dinosaur case, and I really want to read the story. Congo on BOTD.

This is one of those fields I find quite daring to explore: questioning the existence of what you've known your entire life to be true. So, it's an interesting book but math and physics are up for consideration. Thanks for your review.

Whoa. Disproving the existence of dinosaurs in a court of law? Now that's something I want to see. I also really love paleontology, science, history and math, so this book sounds like something I would be into. Someone get me my smelling salts, I'm about to swoon!

What an interesting book. I love science and i love law or court books. Is a catchy theme. And very intriguing. What if dinosaurs indeed doesn't exist. Love conspiracy theories. Congrats on BOTD.

The Dinosaur Lawyer by Adam Van Susteren: Highly technical details of fossils coupled with intrigue as Aaron Baker navigates the corridors of power and keeps his integrity in high stakes finance dealings with clients that have potential to affect his hard earned reputation and career.

A court case about dinosaurs? This sounds interesting. The inclusion of maths and physics are a huge turn-off though. I've done enough of those in my lifetime. :lol: Thanks for the great review!

Legal thrillers can be interesting and I don't mind a lot of heavy material in my books; I even enjoy questioning what we are taught in school. This particular topic, however, is one that I'm not sure I'm in the mood to face at the moment. I've been bombarded with far more than my fair share of conspiracy theories lately, some of them believable, most...frustrating, you could say. Still, I try and keep an open mind, and I really don't know what conclusion the characters really come to, so I'll reserve this for a time when I'm more in the mood. Thank you for the helpful review.

I'm not really a fan of legal novels or dinosaur's stories. I hope fans of law and science fictional stories enjoy this one. Thanks for the review.

I can certainly think of a few people I would recommend this book to. Covering law, history, science and medicine in one novel is absolutely fascinating. I’m excited to continue reading this book. This fantastic review just motivates me even more - well done!
