I think I may have fallen into a dinosaur obsession. Possibly. The Lost World is Crichton's sequel to Jurassic Park. The book is set 5 years after the fall of Jurassic Park and the bankruptcy of InGen. The Island, site B, that InGen was using for the mass production of dinosaur clones was not irradiated and now is posing a threat to Costa Rica as raptors and compys are escaping to the mainland. Ian Malcom returns with a team on a rescue mission that, of course, goes off course. This is an island populated with carnivorous dinosaurs after all.
The plot is certainly not as strong as Jurassic Park, but the book holds its own. Now I just really want a dinosaur sweater.
