The Lost World

     The Lost World by Michael Crichton was a very adventurous and

suspenseful book.  This book is a perfect addition to Jurassic Park and

continues exactly where it left off.  It takes place on a remote island not far

wrapped around it's mouth.  "They were now just three feet away.  Kelly

hide and lost.  "One of the raptors caught the strut in its jaws and jerked it

hard.  Eddie lost his balance, twisted, and fell backward, toppling over the

side.  Immediately all the animals dropped to the ground.  They heard Eddie

screaming in the night."
