The Crichton book The Lost World was an almost completely different story than the movie. It's not all that great, but it's much better than what the film turned out to be. About half the characters in the movie weren't even in the book, and vice versa. All the Godzilla crap with the T-Rex attacking San Diego was made up for the film, as well as all those guys who showed up to hunt the dinosaurs and ended up just being raptor/T-rex fodder, and Vince Vaughn's stupid character.
I think the second book is great, but I enjoy the first more. Agreed the books are better, and both are completely different than the film adaptations, especially TLW.
