“Zoo” is another great read by these two authors. Something has happened around the world. Many different types of animals are attacking humans. Jackson Oz, a biologist considered a crackpot, has a theory that many do not believe. He has to convince the world that his hypothesis is coming true and that they must find a way to stop it from continuing. “Zoo” is a Michael Crichton type of novel in the fold of “Jurassic Park” but much more believable, because the animals are not extinct. The novel races along with a final ending that is realistic and logical. “Zoo” is a total departure from the usual mystery novels these two authors are known for and is a frightening look at how technology has gone wrong.
