T. Rex and the Crator of Doom [1] is a great read about the actual impact site of the asteroid that (probably) wiped out (the last of) the dinosaurs. Admittedly the author is not exactly unbiased, since not only is his career built on the event but so was his father's! But still quite convincing and very interesting.
