Menosaurus

Rex is racing to master the secrets of time and space, in order to defeat the Mantoid menace. He is shocked to learn there is only one way to wipe out the enemy. In order to save the Earth, he must travel to the end of time and exterminate the dark energy that gives the Mantoids their power. But as dark energy is the glue that holds everything together, how can he do it without destroying the universe itself?

Holy crab-claws! The fast-action ‘Andee the Aquanaut series’ continues in Book Two, ‘All Great Things Start With Small Beginnings’. Andee is torn between finding his parents, fulfilling his role as protector of the ocean's creatures, saving the Lost City and rescuing the King’s beautiful daughter, Yolanda, from the evil Queen Zadora. Two new companions arrive to aid Andee in his epic quest.

Andee is held captive deep in a cave in a marine canyon. Covered in barnacles and tortured by Zadora’s evil goblin sharks as he hangs from the walls, Andee even forgets his own name. Andee’s only hope is a little rockfish that tries to raise his spirits and keep his mind alive.

The invasion of Earth has begun. Lord Gorgo of Prehistoria has launched his asteroid storm of rock-ships, sending his warrior Menosaurs with a clear command – DESTROY ALL HUMANS! Rex, Rion and Tarrock hyper-drive to Madagascar on their quest for Grandidierite. Attacked by unknown ancient forces, Rion is seriously injured and is left dying... Forced to confront his half-droid, half-Menosaur powers, Rex will have to overcome one of the biggest losses of his life if he is to save the planet – and his best friend.

The Mantoid lord's evil forces have depleted oxygen levels, and Zero gravity has taken effect, plunging New York City into total Jurassic chaos as dinosaurs ravage the streets. Marines hunt in camouflaged spacesuits, and every human fights to survive. Lieutenant RainHorn has gone AWOL, missing in action, feared dead, and a new commander has been assigned to find him and bring him home. Rex and Rion transcend past space-time dimensions to stay one step ahead of the enemy and defeat the Mantoid lord. But they might just have to die first before they can save themselves and Earth.

As a dark army of asteroid rock-ships hurtle towards Earth, a hijacked Aero-cop car crashes in Madagascar, and a Tyrannosaurus Rex claws its way free from the wreckage. Tyrann has come to Earth in a desperate attempt to find his son Tarrock, who is searching for the Grandidierite that will take him home. Will Tyrann reach Tarrock in time before his arch-enemy the evil Terra strikes? Rex is also under attack. Lord Gorgo has allied with the demonic Mantoids to conquer Earth, and they have recognized the danger Rex presents to their plans. Attacked from within, Rex will need all the support of his friends if he is to withstand the assaults of dark matter on his computer brain. But Rion is hiding a secret that will challenge everything Rex believes is true. Will Rion’s shocking confession aid or destroy the young hero’s fragile psyche?

Book One: Tyrannosaur Droid Boy A powerful race watches Earth from the planet Prehistoria. The Menosaurs can shape-shift between human and dinosaur form. Over eons, they've mastered their plan to take control of Earth. Why? Our planet is the greatest known source of Grandidierite rock. The Menosaurs use it for fuelling rock-ships and communication devices. Now the year is 3017. A teenage boy, Rex, has survived a near-fatal plane crash and been rebuilt; he is wired like a computer. Rex's guardian and best buddy is a furry, yeti-droid named Rion. One day, a blazing rock, like a fiery bomb, crashes across the roof of Rex's home and explodes in the forest. Rex and Rion trek into the trees to discover what's happening. What they find hiding in a cave blows their minds! A young Menosaur, called Tarock, was crossing deep space. Something went terribly wrong and Tarock's asteroid-ship encountered a strange gravitational pull. Sucked far off course, it crashed on Earth. NASA and the US Marines are searching the area for this alien invader. Tarock is in desperate circumstances. But Rex and Rion are not about to have their new friend annihilated by trigger-happy, nuke-blasting soldiers. Rex begins the adventure of a life-time; pitting his wits and technology against alien invaders, armed forces, and NASA. He and Rion team up with the Menosaurs, and come face to face with their mortal enemy: the black Mantoids. Events of great importance for Earth unfold across the universe as powerful forces are unleashed. Not all Menosaurs can be trusted, and the evil Mantoid also plan to claim Earth and destroy the human race.
