    This book is far ahead of its time. Combines real science with probing questions regarding ethics, while tying it into an action/adventure novel that's very difficult to put down. It is - as far as I'm concerned - on par with HG Wells and deserves far more credit as a literary achievement. That said, be warned - the final act flags and somewhat falls apart - but I still say it was well-worth it.

    4.0 out of 5 stars It was a surprise comparison to the film!
    Reviewed in Canada on August 29, 2022

    Granted the computer technology referenced is kind-of laughable now (had a good chuckle at "interactive CD-ROM") and our perceptions of the dinosaurs depicted are drastically different - but what do you expect from a book written 30+ years ago! Still, the genetic capabilities and the scientific debates/power is very interesting!!!

    I had no idea that a lot of iconic scenes from all three films were references/chapters from this novel. I have to say Alan Grant and Ellie were depicted fairly accurately in the movie (obviously Hollywood changed some characteristics for character growth/interest) but there was a whole lot more going on with Hammond, Ian, Gennaro, and Wu in the book, as well as other additional characters.

    Definitely give it a read!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Novel is better than the movie, slightly dated on technology but brilliant entertainment

    Michael Crichton books are classics. Although always well ahead of his time on every book -- and I like all of his books -- this one, together with Andromeda Strain -- are amazing classics and timeless despite obviously dated technology. He was ahead of his time, a veritable Jules Verne of later times, but still you certainly feel a little "dating" particularly in books with computers (i.e. there's a very big turning point in this book relating to computers). But, you suspend disbelief and ignore the technology a little, because he still writes the best techno thrillers out there. This is my second favorite from him, and I enjoy it more than the movie (even though the first movie was great.)
    Even if you've seen the movie, still well worth the read. He knows how to build characters and get them on stage quickly, how to explain technology so we can understand (again quickly) and he builds tension and plot like no author techno thriller author. Highly recommended.

    When I 1st came across this book I thought it was just gonna be like the movie you know just like your average dinosaur gets out and all fire breaks loose but this book was more scary I watched a lot of analog horrors and stuff but this book really brought it all together I think the way that Michael Crichton ruled it was really cool and the 1 part that actually really scared me is when Ned dies like how he gets his belly scratched open and his head bite off that's terrifying And if you're wondering what the dinosaur did that it was a dilophosaurus as in the dinosaur that spits acid and in the book they're 10'ft tall yeah I wouldn't be living in that universe

    3.0 out of 5 stars A thrilling, yet fundamentally flawed read
    Reviewed in Canada on April 8, 2020
    Verified Purchase
    The 3-stars I gave this book came with much difficulty, as this was literally the first "real" novel I read growing up (the previous books I was exposed to were of the "Goosebumps" & "Hardy Boys" variety) and nostalgia was a factor. When I read Jurassic Park originally 18 years ago, I was in awe; however, my young mind focused on the story, the action, and sense of adventure; yet failed (or was ill-equipped) to notice the plot and structure. I want to stress: I have never read a book this widely published (and a best-seller to boot) that had anywhere close to the many inexcusable typos, grammatical errors, and continuity issues found in Jurassic Park. Not to mention, Crichton's writing was painfully inelegant at times. The action of Jurassic Park flows quite nicely, and helps to build suspense; however, when the action died down, well, that left a lot to be desired. There was a bored jerkiness to those sections that were hard to get through sometimes. Crichton reused the same descriptors way too often, and had a bad habit of using words twice (ie. "had had" came up a lot).
    So, to sum this review up simply: if you don't particularly care about minor plot holes, grammatical mistakes, awkward syntax, and typos, then this one is a great read. It is very suspenseful and really well paced in many sections. But, if such errors tend to take you out of the story (like me), this one might be a hard pass.

    5.0 out of 5 stars As good as the movie
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 29, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    I am an absolutely huge fan of the Jurassic Park movies. Honestly, they are one of my favourite film series ever and I rewatch them at regular intervals, usually when I am home alone and wanting some comfort movies, as I can no longer persuade other people to watch them with me. My friend, Sandra, has been urging me to read the original book for ages, because it is one of her favourites and she thinks it is better than the movies, but I’ve never got round to it before. Then two things happened at the same time. Firstly, I was home alone again for the weekend and went back to the first three movies to keep me company. Then, the next day I saw a Twitter thread which was discussing movies which were better than the source novel and one of the films suggested was Jurassic Park. ‘Really?’ I thought, ‘That’s not what Sandra says.’ So I decided i had better find out for myself. Plus, it’s probably really embarrassing for a self-proclaimed book addict never to have read a Michael Crichton book, isn’t it? Better remedy that, asap.

    So, I abandoned my pre-planned list of reads for the #20BooksOfSummer challenge again and took Jurassic Park with me on my recent holiday in Cornwall. I have to say, even though I thought I knew the story, I was absolutely hooked from start to finish and raced through it as fast as the demands of my partner that I spend quality time with him on our break would allow. (Men can be SO unreasonable!) This book is eminently readable, particularly if you have seen the movies. Firstly, the chapters are short, which always helps reading go quickly. Secondly, I was having great fun comparing the book to the movies and picking out familiar bits of the story and parts that were different (no spoilers, but there are some shocking differences!) Thirdly, the writing is just fantastic.

    So, is the book better than the movie? Are the movies better than the book? Which did I prefer. Well, this may sound like a copout but I promise you it isn’t, it is my honest opinion. I liked them both equally because they are very different. Nothing will ever ruin the movies for me. I love them, they are fun and action-packed and include some of my favourite characters ever (plus Sam Neill, yum!) The books are more detailed, more complex and possibly more brutal. Some of the characters are very different (I won’t say more for fear of spoiling the story.) Some things happen differently (one, not in a good way at all!) but work effectively for the story.If you are a fan of the movies, I wouldn’t let it put you off reading the books. I have now ordered three more Michael Crichton novels to read, because his writing style hooked me in and I am keen to see what else he can do. Watch this space.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully thrilling with surprising realism.
    Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    Michael Crichton does an outstanding job at merging realism with science fiction with his most popular novel ‘Jurassic Park’. The mix between just enough realistic details and events blends perfectly with the somewhat hard to believe premise of recreating dinosaurs that take over their habitat. Between the excellent setting buildup and compelling characters that have a very strong sense of humanity, this book is perfect for anyone looking for a fun book to read. ‘Jurassic Park’ also has a deep underlining meaning often portrayed through the character Ian Malcolm. Ian Malcolm really describes the situation and boils them down into what seems like a real-life scenario, through his deep philosophical under tones to his description of patterns throughout nature, giving this book a surprisingly thoughtful and concerning tone that correlates with the world around you. Crichton splits the book perfectly as you bounce between characters and scenarios, changing the mood drastically, whilst still maintaining the flow of the novel between chapters.
    Whilst the first 50 pages or so can seem like a task, as soon as the cast gets on their way and begin establishing these bonds and showing their true character, you will find yourself glued to the book until the final few pages. Once the climax starts, it does not stop until the very last page, where you will find yourself thoroughly enjoying the journey Crichton created. The two young children in this book, Lex and Tim, are also outstanding contributions and are actually really competent for their age, and their journey with Dr. Grant leads to the 3 establishing strong bonds through the countless life or death situations.
    The description and realism of the process of creating dinosaurs and the dinosaurs themselves makes it immediately apparent that Crichton spent hours upon hours of research to make sure everything he was saying was factually realistic. Between how they obtained the dinosaur DNA and the entire shady and grim process Wu and Hammond do not tell you is really great and surprisingly interesting. Also, the great descriptions of violence and gore is done quite well and Crichton shifts between sudden and intense descriptions, to very subtle small references leading up to certain characters demise. This switch of tones and descriptions really adds to the entire novel through the outstanding use of words.
    The description of scenery and surroundings is also very adept in this novel, and it makes you almost feel like you are truly in a humid, moist theme-park located in a random island of the coast of Costa Rica. The description of the giant and cumbersome beast’s and the intelligent input Dr. Sattler and other characters bring to the table is also very interesting to watch as it grows and expands almost seamlessly. And no two dinosaurs are remotely alike, they are all so different and portray completely different ideas of what you may know about dinosaurs.
    This book was truly a joy to read and if you are on the fence about buying it, please do so, you will not regret it. Crichton’s ability to write such a genius piece whilst keeping it thrilling and entertaining with intelligent details and an immersive setting to tie it together is truly amazing and outstanding. This is one of the most compelling novels I have read and I greatly recommend you purchase this book to experience Crichton’s expert abilities.
