Unless
your species evolved sometime after 1993 when Jurassic Park hit
theaters, you're no doubt familiar with this dinosaur-bites-man disaster
tale set on an island theme park gone terribly wrong.
But
if Speilberg's amped-up CGI creation left you longing for more scientific
background and ... well, character development, check out the original
Michael Crichton novel.
Although
not his best book (get ahold of sci-fi classic The
Andromeda Strain for that), Jurassic Park fills out the film
version's kinetic story line with additional scenes, dialogue, and
explanations while still maintaining Crichton's trademark
thrills-'n'-chills pacing. As ever, the book really is better than the
movie. --Paul Hughes
