Great summertime read for a dino freak like me. Only about the last 1/3 of the book actually takes place on the plateau though. The world’s thoroughly fleshed out, but I wish Bear had focused more on the legacies of other characters from The Lost World, instead of real-life filmmakers from the 1920s-40s. The whole adventure has like .5 women in it, and the whole thing feels like a boy’s club at times. With all that being said, I really do love the world Bear has made, and it’s a great summer adventure to get lost in.
