"Nobody brings dinosaurs and their world to life like Riley Black. Gorgeously written, Tyrant Lizard Queen is reminiscent of animal-centric epics The Black Stallion and Call of the Wild , instantly pulling you into the thrilling inner world of Tyrannosaurus rex . As we follow Snaggletooth the T. rex on her journey from little nestling to fierce adult, we learn fascinating details dinosaur physiology and the Jurassic ecosystem--but most of all, we learn to identify with a creature who has vanished from the Earth, and to appreciate who she really was beyond the myths and monster movies." -- Annalee Newitz, author of Four Lost Cities: A Secret History of the Urban Age and Automatic Noodle "With Riley Black''s latest paean of dinosaurian lore, Tyrant Lizard Queen, she lyrically recreates the life of a tyrannosaur who experiences many meat-and-greet moments during her adventure-filled life in and around a Late Cretaceous forest. Although Tyrant Lizard Queen is part make-believe, its story is firmly grounded in the latest of what we know about this most famous of dinosaurs, Tyrannosaurus, and the places they called home more than 66 million years ago. Read, roar, and enjoy!" -- Anthony Martin, Paleontologist at Emory University "Riley Black is one of my favorite writers because she sees fossils with such beauty and clarity, as real animals that once had to eat, sleep, mate and confront all the normal challenges of life. Over the years she has created her own genre of narrative prehistorical nonfiction, and in this new book she introduces Snaggletooth, the dinosaur hero we all need: a T .
