NEXT have been out on paperback format since end of last year.
I get the book from Popular. Since member got 20% for the monthly
new release book.
NEXT is just another MC typical story. Mix with alot of Info.


I think my favorite MC book so far is... dunno leh
Hard to decide.

Lemony Snicket

Yay... fellow crichton fans

I actually find the movie version of Timeline more enjoyable. It makes the romance between Andre and Claire more believable as they have more interaction and sparks between them. Of course, the novel has more explanations about the multiverse concept which just cannot be translated onto the big screen.

Speaking of which, does anyone notice that Crichton's works always have crappy, rushed endings? It's like the whole story was built up to a climax and suddenly it just ends abruptly. The novel version of Jurassic Park had such as lousy ending (WTF raptor nest and migration?), and so did Prey which metamorphosed from bio-robotic scifi into a B-grade Hollywood kill'em all finale. Andromeda's Strain's ending was very unexpected too and I feel that the excuse that the microbe has mutated into a non-virulent form seems really sleazy for all the suspense it had been building up.

the few reason why stephen king books are not worth the read as well.....

Yeah man~ Forgering and stealing the decleration of independence... LOL, u think National Treasure copied that? hmmm... debatable...

I'm more of a graphic reader.... Well, what the hell's that? LoL... Graphic readers are people that reads a book and quickly changes each scene into pictures in their head. So it makes reading so damn fun, coz its like watching a movie inside ur head... cool eh? Jack Higgins is my favourite graphics author, I'm the sound/visual effect editor as I edit the movie in my head... Try it sometime guys, but of course, it'll take an action/adventure book to make the experience worthwhile... Coz once i tried to do that with a mystery type book, i got so confused that at the end of the book, i didn't even know what happened...
