Child: PeterAppears as a character (usually brooding) in the 1998 novel Dinosaur Summer by Greg Bear , who establishes his novel to be a quasi-sequel to both the 1912 novel The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle and the Harry Hoyt-directed The Lost World (1925), treating Doyle's novel as though it were factual and adding the filmmakers involved with King Kong (1933) into the adventure. In Bear's novel, Schoedsack becomes a hero, rescuing others when they are about to be eaten by dinosaurs.
