Reviews
Awesome book
4By Kmorales27Fun read, i wish this series would of never ended.Why did Malcom go back smh
5By Ac96While I get why they probably didn’t adapt THIS version of the story for the movie , I was left wondering what this story would’ve been like on screen !! Starts off slower than the last book but you’ll be engrossed and blasting through those chapters once Dino’s are involved! Also you’d think Malcom had enough of chaotic Dino islands after the last book , but his monologues are always welcome.The book I’ve always wanted.
5By 13cpowellA perfect thriller, an easy read, a throw back to what filled my childhood full of awe and wonder.Amazing!!!
5By AitWreckaAmazing!!!!Good read
4By sockmonkey18Good read, but the behavior of the humans with dinosaurs was a little unbelievable.It was a great book
5By booksarecool1234I loved the first book but sequels usually aren’t as good as the original but this book proved that wrong this book was exiting like the first one (the movie for this book isn’t as good as the Jurassic park movie)I love Ian Malcom in the movie series
5By Duck lover 27He was the best characters “Life always finds a way”Not too bad
3By john wheelzLike most sequels this book isn’t as good as the first. My main problem was that a lot of the character actions, settings and expositions were confusing and hard to grasp. There were plenty of times I struggled to understand where one or more of the characters was located and what they were doing when the dinosaurs begun to attack. It’s not hard to follow though, you usually end up extrapolating the information as you continue to read. For me the best aspect of this book was that it gave Crichton a platform to wax intellectual about several different academic subjects through the dialogue. Things like chaos theory, animal behavior, evolution, genetics, etc. Ian Malcolm’s rants were some of my favorite passages.Phenomenal
5By Cole MagnusMichael Crichton’s genius is immortalized in this thrilling read.More better than the second movie.
5By gabe donovanMore dinosaurs and more characters. Lewis Dodgsona death in the rex nest was so scary and awesome. The disease that’s killing the dinosaurs is very exciting and very intense. But the books are my favorite books . Crichton will always be my idol .
