any Crichton fans here?

I was really big into him in the late 90s. I think Sphere, Andromeda Strain, and Congo were my favorites. But as I grew my preferences in writing changed. He is definately great but I stop reading modern fiction for the most part so I haven't read any of his newer offerings.

wasnt gnats, was a man made mechanical disease, a collective. to each his own though

That's what he was trying for, but due to poor antagonist developement....they just seemed like killer nano-gnats to me.

Just my humble opinion. I love Chrichton's work, just not "Prey".

Another vote for Airframe.. really good.. Who knew aircraft investigations were exciting!

Try reading the NTSB reports. They're not nearly so eloquent, but you get ALL the details.
