El mundo perdido

michael crichton

Michael Crichton, el gran maestro de la aventura inteligente y verosimil, retoma en esta continuacion de Parque Jurasico los aspectos mas inquietantes de la trama original y logra una narracion tan emocionante como solo su talento podia conseguir. La pesadilla empieza en la isla
de Costa Rica, donde se encuentran varios cadaveres de dinosaurios. El paleontologo Richard Levine organiza una expedicion y, gracias a sus peculiares ayudantes -dos ninos superdotados-, consigue que Ian Malcolm, uno de los pocos hombres que conoce lo que realmente ocurrio en aquella isla remota, colabore en la arriesgada empresa. Como es sabido, esta isla fue el verdadero laboratorio del parque, donde los dinosaurios eran fabricados y criados sin ningun criterio cientifico para los responsables de una empresa cegada por los intereses economicos. Ahora, las consecuencias de tales manipulaciones son pavorosas: los dinosaurios se han vuelto violentos e impredecibles y amenazan con extender su salvaje hegemonia a todo el planeta.
