yeah I like Michael Crichton's work, but that doesn't mean pretending that all of his books are in some grand unified universe.

You realize that this also... cant be done, each book that is unconnected to the original Jurassic Park represents a separate intellectual property... a separate concept.

I actually find it offensive that you would dilute his other works by making them ancillary works to Jurassic Park. Most of his work deserves their own films and franchises, not to be shoved into a crack somewhere in the Jurassic Park franchise to patch up a perceived flaw.
