New Dinosaurs - Brontomerus

This guy is so appearing in my next book, the sequel to The Dinosaur Games... coming to Amazon in March.

Not everyday a brand new Sauropod hits the headlines. He's got to be the coolest butt-kicking Sauropod discovered so far. Ok, so "Thunder Thighs" was technically discovered a few years back, but scientists have taken that time to carefully reconstruct him from fossils to discover he is indeed a new species a with unique survival skills.

This guy is from Grand County, Utah, real dinosaur country. He's defo in my top ten fav dinosaurs. Check out the new story link from yesterday.

Dinosaurs... facts or fiction: Can Pterosaurs fly?

Pterosaurs are not too big to take off from ground and fly. 

Well at least that's what this news article reveals. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-11756858 

So it looks like I got that one right in my new novel The Dinosaur Games.
