| Review Summary |
Crichton better watch his back! This novel makes his Jurassic Park seem like a fairy tale. Because of our detonations of nuclear weapons; time has been turned back millions of years. Dinosaurs now walk the earth again and man is their prey! This novel is told thru the eyes of few characters who must try to able to survive. This novel boasts action, terror and little romance.
