I like the review of the Michael Crichton books, I've read all those on your site and also Jurassic Park, Lost World, Sphere, Airframe and Congo.
Prey is one of my least favourites, I guess it's because I got too much used to his style. I read almost all of his books so could predict some things that happened in the book. i didn't really like Rising Sun either. Felt too much anti-japanese, and now it seems outdated since now Japan isn't as powerful as it was when the book was written.
What I like about MC is that his books all explore different domain. So he's not like John Grisham who only writes about the legal world for example.
My favourite book by him is Lost World. Was the first one I read and it completely blew me away. But that's also mybe because i've always been interestes in biology and evolution theories. You should definitely check that one out. It's totally different from the movie (they changed a lot of things)
I also write movie reviews sometimes but they're not good ones. I just write down what I write about them as I go. If anyone is interested you can read some in my
blog.
