About this listen

When a naked man with amnesia shows up at my door, I have the usual theories: alien, time-traveling assassin, lost tourist who partied too hard the night before.

This is New Orleans, so my money is on the last one.

What doesn’t make the list? Dinosaur shifter.

Something is hunting us so no time to dwell on how and why. Killian—not his real name, but Sexy Beast is a little too on the nose—is willing to take on the world for me. Which is a nice change since I’m usually to blame for everything. Just ask my mother or the New Orleans Police Department.

As we run for our lives and investigate a murder somehow connected to me, Killian’s memory returns. Turns out, time traveling assassin isn’t that far off.

Now I'm hiding out with a gorgeous beast of a man who may or may not want to kill me. And there’s only one bed.

Is this my worst nightmare or a fantasy come true?

The Bone Doctor is the first book in my dino-shifter trilogy, The Dino Uprising. It features a snarky hero, a protective anti-hero, a swashbuckling four-foot pirate, and a hidden world where dinosaurs still exist.

This is a really great start, and I'm hopefully for where it's going. At this point we have more questions than answers but what we got was fast paced, interesting, and full of heat. I did listen to the audio, which I think makes it a little easier to look past what is missing.

3.5 Stars!

An interesting start to the series, as I've never read anything about dinosaur shape-shifters before. The writing style was good, but I felt the world-building was a little lacking. And I can't really understand why no one is totally freaked out that Killian is a dino-shifter. The story is written alternately from Beau's and Killian's perspectives, and it's quite exciting because someone wants Beau dead and Killian wakes up with only fragmentary memories. What happened? And who murdered the professor?
Personally, I felt the relationship between Killian and Beau developed too quickly, but perhaps we'll find out why their feelings for each other grew so rapidly.
As I said, I would have liked the story to be a little longer, because then the author could have developed the characters in more depth. But it's only the start of the series, and maybe the next volume will be a little longer.

Declan Winters narrated the audiobook and did an excellent job! He chose appropriate voices for each character and brought the story to life.

An interesting start to a new series

Short, sweet, a bit silly...I really enjoyed this, and the performance, complete with New Orleans accents, was spot on. It was my first read of a DINOSAUR shifter book, and the start of a series with an ongoing plot, so it raises tonnes of questions that are unresolved at the end of book 1 but I can see myself diving in for more.

Dinosaur shifter fun

Declan Winters' performance here was fantastic. I adored these characters. I am a huge fan of amnesia stories and this one had a great payoff with the returned memory. New Orleans is my favorite city so I was delighted to find us there and I'm enjoying the mystery and suspense as well as the protector vibes.

Audiobook - very good narration and accents.
Story - dinosaur shifters are an intriguing idea, and the dangerous situations were excellent. I would personally have preferred this to be a bit longer, as there was barely any time to deepen the characters. I would have expected the insta-love to be slightly postponed due to the dino thing, for example. Promising series.
