  • Quick and Captivating Read

    The book follows what protocol would be followed by the united states in the event of a space viral/bacterial species that infects human. The science is very true to real life even though the book is a fiction. All the techniques from electron microscopes to UV spectroscopy are genuine and Crichton has a rich understanding of scientific endeavors in his time. The plot itself is fantastic and even the unknown obstacles that could come with an unknown strain of infection are incorporated as well as errors made by overlooking information (errors in observation).

  • Andromeda Strain

    Great Michael Crichton book. If you are a fan of his writing and books then give this one a try. He has a way of writing novels that could actually happen. Best part, there is a second book (Andromeda Strain Evolution) that I'm looking forward to reading as well.
