Set in the not-too-distant aftermath of Jurassic Park, the book places the main narrative focus on mathematician Ian Malcolm, who undertakes a dangerous journey to Isla Sorna (aka Site B), a secret InGen facility where the dinosaurs were initially bred and raised before being transferred to the park proper on Isla Nublar. Spurred to action by an avalanche of fan letters and, of course, Spielberg's growing desire to make another Jurassic blockbuster, Crichton publishes The Lost World in 1995. As the rules of Hollywood dictate, a sequel must be made. The film - based on the novel of the same name by Michael Crichton - is an instant hit, garnering acclaim for its groundbreaking special effects and ultimately netting over $1 billion at the worldwide box office. Almost two decades after the release of Jaws, legendary director Steven Spielberg once again changes the landscape of summer blockbusters with Jurassic Park.
