Title: Like reading a script, minus the dialogue.
Product review: Although the plot was interesting (even though it was merely a Jurasic Park), the writing, character development, etc. was lacking considerably. Why, oh why, couldn't Crichton have populated the story with three dimensional characters that one could enjoy following? All of the characters could easily have been replaced by Good Guy 1, Good Guy 2, Bad Guy 1, and Bad Guy 2, and NO harm would have come to the story--that's how underdeveloped they were! As for the writing, there are ways to begin dialogue other than to type He said, "..." And what about atmosphere, tangible descriptions, etc? In short, the book had a good concept but unfortunatey seemed to have been written merely as the forethought to a script.
