Dinosaur Lake VIII: For Love of Oscar (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Chief Ranger Henry Shore once fought the lethal infestation of prehistoric dinosaurs in his beloved Crater Lake National Park. The first monster, which he called Godzilla, then the flying nightmares, the Gargoyles, then the small evil dinosaurs, and finally One-Eye and its twin. With his wife, Ann, his rangers, and his friends he eliminated the blood-thirsty beasts not only in his park, but over time in many other places. From the beginning of the dinosaur wars he was befriended by a small, intelligent telepathic dinosaur he affectionately named Oscar. Oscar was a benevolent creature who believed humans, the 'sticks' as he thought of them, were his friends, too. Oscar saved Henry's life, and others, many times. Truth be told, Oscar actually saved the world when sinister aliens unexpectedly arrived, and wanted to annihilate mankind because of our murderous, warlike tendencies; how humanity had never been able to live in peace. Oscar telepathically communicated to the aliens in our defense-and humanity was given one final chance-an ominous warning-to learn to live together. Live together in peace or die. Or the aliens would return and end our species forever. Now Oscar, and his expanding family, need Henry's help. They'd been living happily deep in the backwoods of Crater Lake Park, hidden from human eyes and malicious human interference, when the out-of-control wildfire flushes them from their safe haven…and they end up in Crater Lake. Of course, they can't remain there. They'd be seen, discovered. Exploited or hunted to extinction because people still feared and loathed dinosaurs because of how many humans they'd slaughtered during their bloody reign. But, aside from Henry's love of Oscar, the Oscars' survival is crucial if the aliens ever return, so Henry and his paleontologist son-in-law, Justin, must lead the horde away from the lake to a new safe home in another isolated section of the park. They must protect the Oscars. But one infant dinosaur has been left behind, and in saving that little dinosaur, returning it to Oscar and its family, Henry almost pays the ultimate price…but Henry would do anything for Oscar. After all, Oscar would-and had many times-saved Henry's life; he saved the planet as well. So Henry, and Earth, are undeniably and forever indebted to the small dinosaur.

Autorenporträt

About Kathryn Meyer Griffith...
Since childhood I've been an artist and worked as a graphic designer in the corporate world and for newspapers for twenty-three years before I quit to write full time. But I'd already begun writing novels at 21, almost fifty years ago now, and have had thirty-one (romantic horror, horror novels, romantic SF horror, romantic suspense, romantic time travel, historical romance, thrillers, non-fiction short story collection, and murder mysteries) previous novels and thirteen short stories published from various traditional publishers since 1984. But, I've gone into self-publishing in a big way since 2012; and upon getting all my previous books' full rights back for the first time have self-published all of them. My five Dinosaur Lake novels and Spookie Town Murder Mysteries (Scraps of Paper, All Things Slip Away, Ghosts Beneath Us, Witches Among Us, What Lies Beneath the Graves, All Those Who Came Before, When the Fireflies Returned) are my best-sellers.
I've been married to Russell for over forty-three years; have a son, two grandchildren and a great-granddaughter and I live in a small quaint town in Illinois. We have a quirky cat, Sasha, and the three of us live happily in an old house in the heart of town. Though I've been an artist, and a folk/classic rock singer in my youth with my late brother Jim, writing has always been my greatest passion, my butterfly stage, and I'll probably write stories until the day I die...or until my memory goes.
