In this thrilling adventure beyond time, a band of explorers must find a way to bring living dinosaurs back to a Lost World. Fifty years after Professor Challenger's discovery of the Lost World, America's last dinosaur circus has gone bankrupt; leaving a dozen avisaurs, centrosaurs, ankylosaurs, and one large raptor abandoned. Now a daring expedition plans to do the impossiblereturn the Jurassic giants to the wild. Two filmmakers, a circus trainer, a journalist and young Peter Belzoni must find a way to take the dinosaurs across oceans, continents, rivers, jungles and up a mountain that has been isolated for 70,000 years. If they make it, all they'll have to do is face all the prehistoric wonders and terrors of the Lost World!
I had much more fun reading this book than I expected. The basic plot is dinosaurs exist in a remote area of South America and once discovered, some were captured and displayed in circuses. Now the last dinosaur circus is going out of business and they're going to take the dinosaurs back to their homeland. Ray Harryhausen is a character which was fun for me. This is an entertaining light read.
I read this over the summer of 1998. It draws upon one of Conan Doyle's Professor Challenger stories. The story here was ok, but I think readers are better off going back to the original novel instead of this one. The book's premise is interesting, but it is just an "ok" book.
