All of Crichton’s brilliance is used to form Jurassic Park. It is probably his most well known novel. The story is based on a company called InGen recreating extinct animals from preserved DNA. The owner, John Hammond creates a theme park to display the dinosaurs, ignoring the warnings of mathematician Ian Malcolm and his beliefs of Chaos Theory. Later a group of visitors come down to the island to take a tour. Then things go terribly wrong. Any fan of the Jurassic Park movies should definitely read Crichton's masterpiece. It is by far one of his greatest novels.
