i dun know whether there is any Micheal Crichton fans here. Anyway, i am one of his fans. I almost finish all of his books without realization. I like his style b'coz bside reading u actually get educated from his books (all the facts he stated look real to me). However, you must learn to exclude the fictional stuff lar. 'The Andromeda Strain', 'Timeline' grips me the most. I finished reading those books within two days for each book respectively. Despite of that, i am quite disappointed with his new books 'State of Fear'.
i can say i'm a fan of Micheal Crichton as well.... the first book that really grab my attention is
SPHERE. i read it a couple of times already until the book become "lunyai" aka "lembik" aka "hancur". Its the book i bring along during my study time a couple of years back and now i still have them in my car.

although the movie rendition of that novel is a bit let down (in my view

).
another one must be
TIMELINE. the whole idea of time travelling is very intriguing... again.. the movie rendition is a SO-SO only...

and Jurassic Park, Congo, Andromeda Strain etc...
i still havent read the State of Fear. maybe i'll try to get it soon..
