Very much a film of two halves, this starts with an intriguing question: the volcano on the Dinosaur's island is about to blow, so what do you do?

Do you save the 'de-extinct' Dinosaurs (who are only 'alive' because of man's intervention, or is this nature's way of course-correcting (as Jeff Goldblum's Dr Ian Malcolm puts it).

With the government falling in with Dr Malcolm's Point of view, (Bryce Dallas Howard's) Dr Claire Dearing (now a Dinosaur's Rights activist, following the events of Jurassic World) and (Chris Pratt's) Dinosaur behaviorologist Owen Grady find themselves back on the island to rescue as many of the Dinosaurs as they can.

And that's the first half of the movie.

The second half then turns into - effectively - a haunted house story as (of course) the Dinosaurs break out of containment in the Lockwood estate for story reasons (which I'm not going into here), before the film ends with the (metaphorical) gates to the Park now wide open.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As Caroline embarks on year eleven at magical Destine Academy, she’s more determined than ever to find out what has happened to her mother and brother

...even if it means taking down her aunt, headmistress for the academy, Marguerite Destine.

Her feelings towards Aldrick and Corbin are more complicated than ever, as both gentlemen keep their distance, leaving Caroline confused.

While the headmistress denies that Tempeste and The Entiere pose any imminent threat, Caroline is still haunted by her encounter and is determined to master the POWERS of the four factions; Magicks, Surnaturals, Metamorphes and Voyantes.

With the help of her friends, Caroline’s strength grows as she learns what it means to harness her destiny—but will it be too late?

I love this little series I look forward to each book. They are quick read that always packs a punch!
