Review: Murder in the Cretaceous Period by Fadhil Qaradaghi

Rasti is a theater director who is schizophrenic and paranoid. Based on his detective plays, a rich man hires him to find out who kidnapped his daughter and killed his son.

Rasti dives into the task, but as a very unreliable narrator, it is often hard to follow his thinking and delusions to see what is really going on.

He also goes back to the Cretaceous Era where under his name Tatanka, he talks about the wicked morals and infection of Man. When a dinosaur murders for sport rather than food, he believes The City and humans have infected the world and thus lead to the extinction.

He talks a lot about Cosmic Plan and Eras.

I enjoyed the story, but felt I had to work for it.
