About this listen

Two boys and a microraptor. A dark, mysterious forest. And a squad of army-trained mercenaries searching for them. What could possibly go wrong?

Falling behind their classmates on a school trip to the Alps, Finn and Milo stumble upon an egg buried in ice. Later that night it hatches, and a 65-million-year-old baby is born. Arty is a microraptor brought back from extinction. But keeping her safe proves harder. Wicked scientists will do anything to get their hands on her, and soon Finn and Milo must run for their lives …

Critic Reviews

'Funny and fast paced with more twists and turns than a microraptor in flight. It's a great set up for lots more adventures to come. I really enjoyed it.' (Mo O'Hara, author of New York Times bestselling series My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish)
'Brilliant! Finn and Milo are going to be such hits. And the kids are going to fall in love with Arty. KEAR! (David Barker, author of The London Falling Trilogy)
'…brace yourselves for a bright new comedy voices as Philip Kavvadias unleashes MISSION: MICRORAPTOR on 11th April. When Finn and Milo accidentally unearth a dinosaur on a school trip, an epic adventure ensues. Fast, funny and fabulous.' (Maz Evans, bestselling author of Who Let the Gods Out series)

Most relevant
This book is absolutely primo for those that like adventure. It’s like a young version of Jurassic park meets James Bond.
Very original storyline, with real content touched on throughout that kids will learn from - bits of survival methods, navigation techniques, mechanical operations, ecology, geography. It’s not boringly in depth, but it’s not stupidly simplified like most kids books. It’s all mixed in with lots of humour that isn’t overly politically correct, or overly crass. It strikes a great balance.
Kids have absolutely loved it.
Awesomely, it’s not americanised in references or in narration. Which is rare in an online audiobook these days.
Hopefully more of these are written, and more audiobooks are recorded with non American narration.

So much better than all the other kids books out there
