We’re going to need a much bigger boat! – Dr George McGavin, zoologist and broadcasterTim Flannery scores again, diving into the murky myth-filled waters surrounding the world’s biggest predator, and surfacing with a breathless true story stuffed with astounding facts and personal experience. – Lucy CookeEngagingly written and a real labour of love (down to the tiny fin at the bottom of each right hand page). Give this book to the wannabe palaeontologist in your life * Mail on Sunday *If you are not already addicted to Tim Flannery’s writing, discover him now. – Jared Diamond, author of Collapse and Guns, Germs and Steel
