I'm pretty sure this was another book that I never bought but read entirely while sitting at a Barnes and Noble, drinking hot cocoa. This is, I think, my last and my favorite Crichton. It was tight, dense, well-paced, and believable. I'm sure if I had read other books in similar vein (The Hot Zone, say) I would be less impressed by his science writing. But I didn't and still haven't, so I am still impressed by the science of this novel. (Populist fic/Sci-Fi; 200 pages)
