These two are isolated in a vast underground laboratory complex, where a group of scientists attempt to establish the nature of the alien organism. ‘. concerns a microscopic organism, inadvertently brought to Earth on a returning space probe, which cause the instant death of everyone in the vicinity of the probe's landing (near a small town) with the exception of a baby and the town drunk. ‘A journalist, intriguingly named Adrian Tripod, investigates the deaths of nearly all adult women on Earth … Tripod discovers the deaths may be caused by poisonous cosmetics manufactured by a corporation that’s also involved in managing an international juvenile prostitution network.’. I know that it’s very mainstream but it is honestly an incredibly intelligently written novel. If you are going to read a Crichton book, and you really should, pick up Jurassic Park. You got a pandemic that kills with blood clotting, the infected dropping like these coronavaxxers are. This movie is very telling of many subject matters popular on conspiracy sites. I had to back order it on Amazon though because me and my mom went to six different book sellers, company, independent, and pre owned, and just couldn’t find them because they were so popular. Movie: Andromeda Strain (1971) Cloud seeding, pandemic, nukes. I was obsessed with dinosaurs as a kid and could name every type from the Cretaceous period so the minute I knew I would understand it (age 10) I read Crichton’s Jurassic Park books. No one is like him and no one will ever come close to being him. PLEASE enjoy some of his art be it directly or indirectly his. His work in writing as well as film is just so unbelievably remarkable and his style so individual, it really can’t be explained, only experienced. This is an author that will be remembered and revered for ages to come. His history in law and science always influences his writing in a very logical and technical way that just enhances it. His life is incredibly interesting as is every novel of his that I have read. He is also the author of The Andromeda Strain, State of Fear, Micro, Timeline, Prey, Dragon Teeth, and more. Ever heard of a little book called Jurassic Park and it’s sequel Lost World? Well he wrote it. If you think you haven’t heard of him, you are just wrong. This phenomenal writer and filmmaker has made an incredible mark and pop culture and his unfortunate death at age 66 of lymphoma was devastating to many. Michael Crichton (The Andromeda Strain, Sphere)
Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him? Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills - and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit - he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old “human error” are much more likely to kill him first. Chances are, though, he won’t have time to starve to death. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive-and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.
Now, he’s sure he’ll be the first person to die there.
