Preorders are now open

I am definitely super excited about this! One of my day one buys for sure!

Just FYI, Amazon now has a preview of the book:






https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/168383545X?tag=simonsayscom

It's currently set to be released on October 26th.

This is definitely the book I've wanted for over 30 years and will come in handy for my archival work on the series. Probably required reading/ownership on Jurassic-Pedia for our contributors.

If the book does well I wonder if we'll get one on Jurassic World.

Day one buy. I like that it focuses on the first three films only. Been wanting something like this for years.

Can't wait for my pre-order to say "shipped."

I expect and hope that this book will go into the development/original stories for JP3, because aside from a few hints we still don't really know what the earlier versions of the film were going to be. Unlike JP, TLW and even a John Sayles version of JP4, there's never been a early draft of JP3 that made it online...well, there's an early shooting draft but nothing prior to that. Hopefully they'll cover the "Pteranodons on the mainland/Costa Rican investigation" storyline in particular.

New preview of the book here...this thing looks AWESOME.

is it October yet?

Ugh, I just want to know what details they're going to reveal about JP3. It better get its fair share.

To quote Novel-Hammond..."Oh, balls!" According to Amazon, the release date has been pushed back to November 16th. I guess books about all major theme parks have delays.

I wonder why the delay. Hopefully adding more stuff rather than trimming it...

It seems like COVID has had this effect on the publishing industry in general, so it's probably just that.

I officially pre-ordered the book today. It’s going to look great on my shelf. Getting Sam, Laura and Jeff contributing to it makes it even more worthwhile. Hoping for the best. The previews seem fine.

There's a follow-up book focused on the JW trilogy already listed on Amazon, coming out in June in time for "Dominion."

I can't wait for that one either. I wonder if including Camp Cretaceous means season 4 will be the last one, or will tie into Dominion and then season 5 will go past Dominion.
