Battlesaurus: Rampage at Waterloo is a 2015 young adult alternate history novel written by Brian Falkner. It is set during the Napoleonic Wars in a universe where non-avian dinosaurs never went extinct.
In an alternate universe, non-avian dinosaurs never went extinct. While smaller dinosaurs thrive in Europe, much larger ones live in the Americas, leading to the continent never become inhabited by humans. After escaping exile in Elba, Napoleon captures some large dinosaurs from the Americas and plans to use them to conquer Europe. It is up to Willem, a 15-year-old Flemish boy, to stop him, as he has the ability to put dinosaurs into a trance because of training from his father, who was a magician.
