Descrição

In a groundbreaking exploration of science and ethics, a group of ambitious scientists push the boundaries of genetic engineering to resurrect dinosaurs. They create a theme park, Jurassic Park, on a remote island, aiming to provide a thrilling experience for visitors. However, the exhilaration quickly turns to horror when the meticulous security measures fail, unleashing these ancient creatures into the modern world.

As chaos ensues, the characters must confront their hubris and the unforeseen consequences of playing god. The story intertwines suspense, adventure, and moral dilemmas, raising questions about humanity's relationship with nature and the future of technology. As tensions rise and danger lurks around every corner, they are forced to fight for survival in a world where the past collides violently with the present.

A solid and fast-paced read. The science and tension both hit hard, and it holds up well even with what we now know. Hammond was an absolute lunatic — I can’t imagine having that little concern for others, especially his own family. Some of the science is clearly dated now (the DNA recovery, frog gene stuff, and dinosaur behavior), but that doesn’t take away from how well the story works as a warning about human arrogance and control. Still a great ride.
