Review: Captain Raptor and the Moon Mystery by Kevin O'Malley and ill. by Patrick O'Brien

Synopsis: A strange bright object streaks across the sky of Jurasica, the home planet of Captain Raptor. The Captain and his brave crew set out to study the object and defend their home.

Review: If Star Trek (the Original Series) and Buck Rogers had a Baby, and that Baby had a kid with the Old School Batman series, this would be it - but with Dinosaurs.

Hilarious and cheesy, with bold bright art and detailed illustrations, the reader follows the intrepid Captain Raptor and his crew to the stars. There, they face dangerous animals and intriguing mysteries.

Children will adore the fun adventures and catch-phrases tossing Dinos and parents might actually not hate reading this one more than a few times. As an adult (and sci-fi lover) I found this laugh-out-loud funny and will be purchasing the rest of the series. Onward to the Stars!
