Books From The Backlog-Pliosaur

Books from the Backlog is a fun way to feature some of those neglected books sitting on your bookshelf.  You might be surprised by some of the unread books hiding in your stacks. Go to Carole's blog and add your blog post link in to join in the fun! Hosted by Carole at https://carolesrandomlife.blogspot.co.uk/

This seems like a fun feature and I have been planning to take part since Carole launched this so at last, here we go! I have a TON of unread books to choose from in various genres and I'm looking forward to sharing some of them with everybody. 

Archaeologist John Paxton has always been eluded by the great find. But his luck is about to change on a mysterious island near South Africa, where he seeks a rare prehistoric fish. Deep inside the caves, John finds more than he bargained for. He encounters the tribal elder, Kota-practically the devil himself with a plan straight from hell. Within the caverns beneath the island, the tribe worships and nurtures a prehistoric marine reptile that could engulf T. rex. The size of a sperm whale, and equipped with ten-foot jaws bristling with eighteen-inch teeth, this pliosaur is the last remaining member of the greatest predator species that ever lived. Only then does John realize Kota's true agenda-to unleash the leviathan on the modern world to fulfill the tribe's bloodlust for revenge. Now it's all up to John to warn humanity of the fifty-ton killing machine headed its way-before the Ivory Coast washes blood red. But first, he has to get off the island . . . alive.

I took one look at this cover and decided that I needed to buy it! I can never resist any kind of dinosaur or sea monster book and I love books about deadly pliosaurs because they are so big and scary! I bought this book and the sequel in August 2018 and want to read them sometime this year!
