![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The people and the workers think China is working on a super immersive zoo called the The Great Zoo of China, but what they are really working on is the Great Dragon Zoo of China. The Plot: The Chinese have discovered a great treasure in copper mines that could be the key to tourism: dragons. This is my fourth Matthew Reilly book, I was intrigued by the premise and a rare stand alone book, this is my first book not part of Scarecrow book series. Reilly who is known for his action delivers a pulse pounding narrative that seems to never let up. What Reilly does really well is have detailed maps, that constantly reminds the reader where they are in relationship to others. ![]() Reilly does not put too much science in his science fiction unlike Michael Crichton does, leaving the story not as believable as Jurassic Park. Where the novel separates it self from Jurassic Park is 300 pages of white knuckle action that does not let up until the end. The novel is self aware and there is references to Jurassic Park throughout. The Great Zoo of China by Matthew Reilly is Jurassic Park with dragons. ![]()
