Summary

La pesadilla empieza en la isla de Costa Rica， donde se encuentran varios cadáveres de dinosaurios。 El paleontólogo Richard Levine organiza una expedición y， gracias a sus peculiares ayudantes -dos niños superdotados-， consigue que Ian Malcolm， uno de los pocos hombres que conoce lo que realmente ocurrió en aquella isla remota， colabore en la arriesgada empresa。

Como es sabido， esa isla fue el verdadero "laboratorio" del parque， donde los dinosaurios eran "fabricados" y criados sin ningún criterio científico por los responsables de una empresa cegada por los intereses económicos。 Ahora， las consecuencias de tales manipulaciones son pavorosas: los dinosaurios se han vuelto violentos e impredecibles y amenazan con extender su salvaje hegemonía a todo el planeta。

Sebuah sekuel dari dinasti Jurassic Park。 Disisipi versi perluasan dari filmnya The Lost World : Jurassic Park， yang membuat saya merasa lega kala memberi pemakluman atas filmnya yang "tak seluas" bukunya。 Salah satu buku yang perlu dibaca setidaknya sekali dalam seumur hidup， terutama untuk anda yang secara gamblang menasbihkan diri sebagai "Jurassic Park Fanboy"。 Sebuah sekuel dari dinasti Jurassic Park。 Disisipi versi perluasan dari filmnya The Lost World : Jurassic Park， yang membuat saya merasa lega kala memberi pemakluman atas filmnya yang "tak seluas" bukunya。 Salah satu buku yang perlu dibaca setidaknya sekali dalam seumur hidup， terutama untuk anda yang secara gamblang menasbihkan diri sebagai "Jurassic Park Fanboy"。 。。。more

Carnage！ Action！ Bloodshed！ Car chases！ Bad guys being eaten alive by dinosaurs！ Murky ethics！ What more could you want？

Mystery。 Fast paced， lots of drama。 Compelling characters。

As a huge fan of the Jurassic Park movies I was very eager to read the original books。 This book falls flat of my expectations。 It has that overwhelming sense of Michael Crichton being pressured to create another book after the booming success of the first， but not really having any direction what-so-ever。The characterisation of Malcolm was honestly exhausting， and with not much happening for most of the book as well， it was hard for me to finish。 I wanted to enjoy this book， but at the end of t As a huge fan of the Jurassic Park movies I was very eager to read the original books。 This book falls flat of my expectations。 It has that overwhelming sense of Michael Crichton being pressured to create another book after the booming success of the first， but not really having any direction what-so-ever。The characterisation of Malcolm was honestly exhausting， and with not much happening for most of the book as well， it was hard for me to finish。 I wanted to enjoy this book， but at the end of the day I just couldn't。 。。。more

So much better than the movie

Actioned packed， but very heavy on the science。 Took a little while to get into the action， but there were some really fun scenes。 Sad there are no more stories， but enjoying all the new media。

The only reason I'm giving the book 3 stars is that the first half the book was quite engaging。 The plot showed promise。Beyond that， you can expect nothing more than cheap thrills， cliched storylines and extremely frustratingly handwaving science。 The only reason I'm giving the book 3 stars is that the first half the book was quite engaging。 The plot showed promise。Beyond that， you can expect nothing more than cheap thrills， cliched storylines and extremely frustratingly handwaving science。 。。。more

An absolutely terrible book that gives me more appreciation for the movie （which isn’t great either）。 Ian Malcolm and his new friend spend 300 pages talking about extinction， and then a half-added climax full of dinosaur attacks happen。 You can tell Critchon had no heart in this one。

Great vacation read！

So this book was Rawrsome…👀 too much？ The Lost World takes place a few years after the first novel when it’s suspected that the dinosaurs may still be around after all。 A couple of observations I’ve noticed is that one， Crichton definitely has a formula for these books but somehow it works。 Secondly， I thought there was a little more science chatter amongst the characters which I didn’t mind at all and found it interesting。 There are some brutal dinosaur scenes in this book that made me pause an So this book was Rawrsome…👀 too much？ The Lost World takes place a few years after the first novel when it’s suspected that the dinosaurs may still be around after all。 A couple of observations I’ve noticed is that one， Crichton definitely has a formula for these books but somehow it works。 Secondly， I thought there was a little more science chatter amongst the characters which I didn’t mind at all and found it interesting。 There are some brutal dinosaur scenes in this book that made me pause and just take a breath。 Also this is nothing like the movie so you need to go into this book with that mindset。 There are similar parts but not that many。 One of the positives I liked about this book a little better than the first is that there are stronger female characters。 As a women I love and appreciate that so much。 If you’re looking for your next summer read please consider this one or the first novel if you haven’t read that yet。 They’re both Trexcellent！ Ok I’ll stop now。。🦖🦕 。。。more

A good build from the original。 It was a bit confusing at times， but overall the story was interesting and it was nice to see the development。

Sara Christians ，

This was a compelling story and it was interesting， but it is not nearly as good as the original Jurassic Park。

Agata Dittmann ，

Ciekawa historia， dość dużo akcji。

Crystal ，

Gripping， smart， and fun！ Like Jurassic Park， this novel made a fantasy， a world with dinosaurs， come to life in the mind。 It was easy to fall for the main characters， apart from Levine， and wow Sarah Harding， the movie did not do you justice。

Found this one surprisingly entertaining。 Arguably enjoyed it more than the first。

Loved this one just as much as the first

3。75 - listened to as an audiobook。 Not quite as exciting as Jurassic Park #1， but still worth while。

Not as strong as its predecessor， but still good in its own right， "The Lost World" is a fun sequel to the classic， "Jurassic Park"。 Created per the request of Steven Spielberg after the blockbuster hit that was the first film adaptation of this series， of which he changed many details。 This sequel is treated no different。 I was astounded by how different the film of the same name is from it source material， like super different。 The villain is different， the ending is different， the protagonist Not as strong as its predecessor， but still good in its own right， "The Lost World" is a fun sequel to the classic， "Jurassic Park"。 Created per the request of Steven Spielberg after the blockbuster hit that was the first film adaptation of this series， of which he changed many details。 This sequel is treated no different。 I was astounded by how different the film of the same name is from it source material， like super different。 The villain is different， the ending is different， the protagonists are different， the dinosaurs are different and interact with the main characters differently， and the ending is very different and finite （as if Crichton was saying， "THAT IS IT！ THE DINOSAURS ARE NOT COMING BACK！ PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ME WRITE ANOTHER！"） As always， per Crichton's talented style， real science blends with the fictitious and is fascinating， also foreshadowing events in the book later on。 I never thought I would be so fascinated by how to best mend a baby T-Rex's bones。 All in all， not bad。 A solid， 4。0 stars from me。 。。。more

Emma Crossen ，

I really enjoyed this book， but I thought Jurassic Park was better。 Malcolm brought humor and the kids weren’t nearly as annoying and useless as in the first one， the action was fun but it didn’t feel as tense as the first one。 I wasn’t as concerned for all the characters as much as the first one either。 Still fun and a good read！
