paleflyer 's review for:

The Lost World by Michael Crichton
4.0

The first book has the magic of the new discovery, and the second book has better story and characters. Quite enjoyed! In both books, I reached a point near the ends where I felt tired of the action, ready for the movie to be over (akin to when I fell asleep at the theater in John Wick 3...).

I've only seen 1/4 of the movie "The Lost World". I despised it before I read the book for its cheap thrills, and I despise it even more now for taking a book that would have made a great movie and hacking it into pieces. Sarah Harding? Actually a pretty badass woman in the book. The kids? Neither of them Malcolm's spawn, and surprisingly tolerable!
