If you loved the relentless drive of Jurassic Park—with Grant, Sattler, and the team racing to contain chaos—you'll be gripped by The Andromeda Strain. Here, a group of scientists must urgently solve the mystery of a lethal extraterrestrial microorganism before it devastates humanity. The tension and focus on problem-solving will keep you on the edge of your seat.

If you were drawn to the way Jurassic Park follows a multidisciplinary group—paleontologists, mathematicians, and corporate execs—thrown together to survive, you'll appreciate Sphere. Psychologists, mathematicians, and scientists must decipher an alien artifact under the ocean, each bringing unique perspectives and clashing personalities, much like Grant, Malcolm, and Hammond.

If you admired the scientific realism of Jurassic Park—the genetic engineering, the careful technical detail—Rendezvous with Rama delivers a similar thrill. Clarke's story follows a team of astronauts as they explore a mysterious alien spacecraft, with meticulous attention to real scientific principles, just as Crichton grounded cloned dinosaurs in real (and speculative) science.

If you enjoyed the immersive setting of Jurassic Park—the intricate systems of the island, the social dynamics, and the ripple effects of chaos—The Stand offers an epic, fully realized post-apocalyptic America. King's novel dives deep into how society unravels, with a sprawling cast and meticulous attention to the world's new rules, much like Isla Nublar's ecosystem turning against its creators.

If the breakneck pace and escalating danger of Jurassic Park kept you turning pages—raptors on the loose, systems failing, characters constantly in peril—Prey will hook you with its race against time as a team battles swarms of rogue nanotechnology. The constant tension and urgent action will feel right at home.
