If you are as excited as I am about Jurassic World Rebirth which is releasing this summer this is the podcast for you. Each week in the lead up to the film I am going to be sitting down with a guest to discuss an entry or aspect of the Jurassic franchise. 

This is episode one and it’s all about Michael Crichton’s original ‘Jurassic Park’ novel from 1990 and my guest is author James Lovegrove. 

We talk about our first experiences of reading the novel and what we think of Steven Speilberg’s adaptation. We also explore Michael Crichton’s early years and our thoughts on his writing style.

• Guest Name: James Lovegrove
• Bio: James is an author of over 70 books writing across many genres and also happens to be a huge Michael Crichton fan
