I'm done!
Two books in one finally read, and I can't believe it!

Coming to this from watching the films, there are so many differences, especially in terms of the Lost World. Man, were we cheated terribly in that film adaptation. Cheated!! Sarah Harding was such a badass in the book. 

Much like Crichton, a lot of scientific details to make it all plausible and natural within the scope of the fantasy without losing the reader. Both books were entertaining, detailed, and yes filled with science and dinosaurs. It even contained tables and charts and computer graphics that it took me back to the early 90's and the beginnings of HTML pages.

4 stars for each book.
