Review
Praise for Prey and Michael Crichton: 'One of the most ingenious, inventive thriller writers around... Prey sees him doing what he does best -- taking the very latest scientific advances and showing us their potentially terrifying underbelly. Another high-concept treat... written in consummate page-turning style.' Observer 'This is Crichton on top form, preying on our fears about new technology and convincing us that we aren't half as afraid as we should be.' The Times 'Mixing cutting-edge science with thrills and spills, this is classic Crichton'Daily Mirror 'Crichton masterfully maintains the suspense throughout the fast-paced story. Crichton's knack for characterisation, combined with his impeccable research, persuades the reader that the tale is dangerously close to becoming reality -- and therefore ensures that Prey will invade your nightmares for a long time to come.' Time Out
Product Description
Another bestselling thriller from the author of Jurassic Park and Prey The "Crichton effect" -- this term has come to signify the distinctive blend of fear, fantasy, and authentic cutting-edge science driving the blockbuster novels of Michael Crichton. Hailed as "the father of the techno-thriller", Crichton boasts an impressive history of global bestsellers -- from The Andromeda Strain to Jurassic Park to Prey -- that explore the frightening possibilities of breakthrough research led astray by abuse and corruption. Drawing on his past as a Harvard Medical School student and his ongoing study of the world of technology, Crichton's gripping fiction is grounded in scientific fact culled from the latest academic journals.
