Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So Worth the Read
I loved this book even more than its prequel, Jurassic Park. The movie disappointed me tremendously, as the plot and the characters are so completely different, it's a stretch to give the movie the same name. Many things in particular bugged me, but most of all was the relationship between Malcolm and Sarah Harding as it was portrayed in the movie. In the book, they are no longer lovers, but friends. Malcolm respects Sarah's knowledge about animal behavior, and her expertise saves their lives many ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Disappointing...
After reading "Jurassic Park," I decided I should go ahead and read the sequel. I expected it to be nearly as good as the first or even better, but I was disapointed. I considered giving it 2 stars, but I personally enjoyed it, so I'll rate it: "Good" (3/5). First, I'll lay down some things I didn't like about "The Lost World":

1) The character development was poorly done. Nearly all the characters seem two-dimensional and consequently not as likeable as the protagonists in "Jurassic ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Pretty good book, I would recommend this book to a friend.
I enjoy most of Crichton's books, they are usually unique and intriguing . I was surprised that he was able to still have more story left after Jurassic Park, but this book was equally entertaining.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good, fun, fast read
I just read this book in little over a week and I am a slow reader. Michael Crichton is a very good writer and this book is an easy read. It picks up a few years later after Jurassic Park. I thoroughly enjoyed it and it was nice to read more about the dino behavior. Overall all a good fun read - you will be satisfied.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not as good as first
This book fell far from the tree when compared to Jurassic Park. I started reading it and had to put it down because it didn't hold my attention much but a few years later picked it up again and finished it. Just not as intense of Jurassic Park and seemed a little forced.
