I kinda assumed he meant fiction, based on the image he posted. If that's correct:

Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton
Raptor Red by Robert Bakker
Dinosaur Summer by Greg Bear
Dinosaur Planet by Anne McCaffrey

are the ones I've read that spring to mind.

Crichton also has a book called Dragon's Teeth about the 'Bone Wars' between fossil hunters in the Old West. I think it may have been published post-humously.

There are a couple in my calibre library that I haven't read called The Dinosaur Four and Dragon Dawn. They sound trashy from the summaries, but maybe they're fun, I have no idea.

Is Michael Crichton worth reading generally? There are several movies based on his work, but you never hear much about the novels themselves.

jurasic park

I meant fiction but non-fiction is welcome too. Thanks for the recs. I have dinosaur fever right now.

Not a book but you should check out Age of Reptiles. A very cool dinosaur comic that's almost like a national geographic documentary. There are no humans in it and in fact no words at all.

Depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for nonfiction, Darren Naish, Mark Witton, Greg Paul, Thomas Holtz, and Robert Bakker are all good. I'm sure I'm missing a few. Don't hesitate to search up papers online as well if you have anything specific you're curious about.

Decent dinosaur fiction is harder to come by, but both Crichton books, Raptor Red, and Dinotopia are the main ones I'm aware of.
