A Walk in the Park

Jurassic Park and Lost World by Michael Crichton. How can you go wrong with dinosaurs? And people getting chomped by them? I re-read these as our daughter has become a dinosaur nut and we allowed her to watch the movies. That made me curious to take a look at them again. I thought it very strange that one major character who dies in the first is brought back to life to be the main character of the second. They are fine as adventure novels, but Crichton has a strange mix of being anti-science on the one hand but in love with technology on the other.
