Publisher's summary

Harry Harrison, an acknowledged master of imaginative fiction, broke new ground with West of Eden. He brought to vivid life the world as it might have been, where dinosaurs survived, where their intelligent descendants challenged humans for mastery of Earth, where a young hunter named Kerrick grew among the dinosaurs and rose to become their most feared enemy. Now the awesome saga continues in Winter in Eden.

A new ice age threatens Earth. Facing extinction, the dinosaurs must employ their mastery of biology to reconquer human territory swiftly. Desperately, Kerrick launches an arduous quest to rally a final defense for humankind. With his beloved wife and young son, he heads north to the land of the whale hunters, east into the enemy's stronghold, and south to a fateful reckoning with destiny.

Not since Dune has there been a work of such majestic scope and conception - a monumental epic of passion, courage, and triumph.

Really good speculative fiction

I like this story set in a prehistoric arena. It ages well unlike other fiction that gets trumped by real tech advances.

A good speculative read

I finished the entire series about a week ago. It's a fun "what if" world. The 2nd book isn't quite as good as the first and is focused on the inter-species conflict, and thus ends up a skosh closer to military sci-fi in nature.

I enjoyed the book, and by the end of it, wanted to know how it'd all turn out.

I've listened to the entire Lost Fleet series, also narrated by Christian Rummel. I liked him in both this trilogy and that series. He does a good job with female voices, which is more important in this book than you might think, as most of the reptilian species' main characters are female. Of course "female" when applied to such a species and such a different mode of communication is more for the reader than anything related to any reality.

He also keeps consistency between characters and across the books, which I sincerely appreciate.

more proof that harry Harrison is a ruler of scifi

the second in his Eden trilogy, this was a fantastic continuation of the story and was a ride to behold. I recommend this series to all who enjoy paleontology, vintage sci Fi, or just good reading in general.

Another solid second

Harrison has never been a letdown on sequels! A true master of words. Rummel has gotten better too. His voice has far better inflection since the first. I look forward to the third.
