Reviews of Dinosaur Wars: Earthfall "Solid science and pacing that never quits." --Kay Kenyon, Philip K. Dick Award nominated author of Maximum Ice "Fills the void since Jurassic Park. And, Hopp's book may be better." --Steve Brusatte, DinoLand Review Thomas P. Hopp's DINOSAUR WARS books have been described as "Star Wars meets Jurassic Park." Filled with action and adventure, his stories follow Yellowstone Park naturalist Chase Armstrong and Montana rancher's daughter Kit Daniels in their struggle to survive an invasion of intelligent dinosaurs returning from space. The invaders intend to reclaim their home world, bringing all the other huge beasts of the past with them! Hopp writes savvy science fiction suitable for all ages. Dr. Hopp was born in Seattle, Washington, where he lived his earliest years in a housing project on the banks of the Duwamish River. Good grades at West Seattle High School and the University of Washington as well as a perfect score on the Graduate Record Exam got him into the Biochemistry Ph.D. program at Cornell University Medical College. He studied genetic engineering at Rockefeller University and helped found the multi-billion-dollar biotechnology company, Immunex Corporation. He discovered genes for immune system hormones and developed the first commercially successful nanotechnology device, a molecular handle called the Flag epitope. He contributed to the creation of Immunex's blockbuster arthritis drug, Enbrel. He worked with paleontologist Jack Horner excavating bones of nest-building duckbilled dinosaurs, and published the "brooding-to-flight hypothesis," in which birds developed wing feathers first for nesting and then for flying. He plays guitar and bass, and has performed onstage with blues legend John Lee Hooker and rock super-groups The Kingsmen and The Drifters. He has lived in San Diego and on Manhattan Island, but now lives near Seattle.
