Book Reviews of The Lost World
Book Review: A Superb Masterpiece--Crichton does it again!
Summary: 5 Stars
With his many bestselling books, you'd think he would run out of ideas. Truly, this has to be his best book at the time I read it. Mind you, I read this book over five years ago, and Crichton has made many books after this that were also incredibly good, like Timeline. But even so, this still is, in my opinion, his greatest work. This book is so wonderfully rich in detail and plot, I don't know how to keep an unbiased opinion. I have read this book so many times that it can only survive with duct tape. Other than the extensive research and detail, it is choc full of character development and action. I literally cried when one of the characters died (I'm not spoiling it for you). This is a book you will not be able to put down.One word of caution though--the introduction and prologue can turn off many people, I suggest skip it, and go back to it. ~Oracle~the Guardian of Angel~
Book Review: A Suprizing Sequal
Summary: 5 Stars
I thought The Lost World was a great book. First of all, it doesn't take place on the same island as most people are saying. It's a different island where Hammond actually had the dinos created. Although the ending was kinda dull, it was a great book with very descriptive words and a lot of suprizes. Read itBook Review: A VERY cool book!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I think that the lost world is one of Micheal Crichtons best books yet. It is similar in plot to Jurassic Park but what kind of idiot didn't like Jurassic Park? Please send me your Questions or comments.
Fredrik SancheBook Review: A Very Good Sci-Fi Thriller
Summary: 4 Stars
If you liked the first book, you'll definitely like this one. This book is definitely 1000 times better than the movie. Few people go to the island and the action is fast paced. The only bad thing about the book is that the characters sometimes began to talk about science. If you're not a big fan of science, then those parts may start to bore you. But when the action starts, it's hard to let go of this book. In general this is a very good sci-fi thriller.Book Review: A book for dinosaur fans
Summary: 5 Stars
I've already read Jurassic Park, and I think that book was very well writen. Lost World was just as good. I liked most everything about this book, except that much of it was poorly writen. It had lots of action in it and adventure. I think that if you read this book you will agree with me.
