The storyline is even similar to Crichton's novel, with a small group of American VIPs and journalists being brought to the secret zoo deep within China to see its fabulous creatures for the first time. Reilly has frequently said that Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park is his favourite novel and The Great Zoo Of China is basically Jurassic Park on steroids, with dragons instead of dinosaurs. The good news for those that missed the bloodletting and the frenetic pace of books like Ice Station and Scarecrow, is that Reilly's latest novel, The Great Zoo Of China, is an action-packed return to style that zips along at a very brisk speed.
