Customer Reviews

Michael Crichton is an artist with words and worlds.

This could have been a formula book, and maybe the skeleton is a formula. Toss in people with different personalities and backgrounds. Isolate them and let them act and react to real and imagined dangers. That is where the parallel ends. The book produces excellent theories and speculation. The characters vary differently than you would guess under stress. And there is a cliffhanger about every five pages, which does not give you much time to get your breath. The descriptions of the environment give you enough detail to form a clear mental picture of what is going on. He does not over-describe things to the point that you fall asleep listening to irrelevant details. This story is full of thrills, great questions, and holds your attention to the end. Strange beasts are turning up on the shores of South America. Meanwhile, other people independently realize that there must have been another location where dinosaurs were raised called “Site B.” Does “Site B” really exist, and if so, what will they find there? Worse still, what will find them?
