This book is what you would get if Michael Bay had directed the first Jurassic Park movie.

Wow.... Just wow! 

This book was fantastic. Definite similarities to Jurassic Park, but there wasnt one moment that i was bored reading this book!

If you love action and adventure with some fantasy creatures, READ THIS BOOK!!!!

Books like Jurrasic Park are my guilty pleasure. This one is about a zoo in China that has Dragons. Yes, Dragons. The's no depth to the characters but the pacing is what's expected, fast full of action... and Dragons.

The Chinese government has been keeping a secret for forty years: they have found a species of animal no one believed even existed that will amaze the world. Now the Chinese are ready to unveil their astonishing discovery within the greatest zoo ever constructed. A small group of VIPs and journalists has been brought to the zoo deep within China to see its fabulous creatures for the first time. Among them is Dr Cassandra Jane 'CJ' Cameron, a writer for NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC and an expert on reptiles. The visitors are assured by their Chinese hosts that they will marvel at these beasts, that they are perfectly safe, that nothing can go wrong . . .

This book was exciting and thrilling and everything I have come to expect from Matthew Reilly. You are always guaranteed an action packed adventure with his books and he always delivers. And this time you get dragons! I mean, as I said to my mom, it's Jurassic Park with dragons! What's not to like?
