brendini's review against another edition
3.0
This is not a fun, easy read. It is dense and filled with technical information. However, if you want to learn a lot about every aspect of tyrannosaurs then this is the best book to read!

this reads like a stuffy textbook and feels somewhat inaccessible while you're reading.

A great book on the Tyrannosauroidea, not just T. rex! Very accessible to the layman.

I found this to be very fascinating although a basic knowledge of morphology and evolution is needed for many of the sections.

n my 20s, I discovered that I’m a total dinosaur nerd. This is an interest that I have been happily exploring for the last few years.
I really enjoyed the The Future of Dinosaurs: What We Don't Know, What We Can, and What We'll Never Know in February, and this book was just as good. Hone does a great job balancing science with accessibility, making what could be a very dense book entertaining and educational. I really appreciated learning more about these ancient carnivores – about their anatomy, ecology, and behaviour – and how they came to be the dominant terrestrial predators of the Mesozoic and one biology’s most iconic creatures.
