What a disappointment. I stopped halfway at the time I really couldn't continue; I've never been irritated by a book before but I did rally round and read to the end of the thing. I'm assuming my irritation was in part because of my expectationsan unfinished Crichton novel! I thoughtwhat fun! But this isn't Crichton: whoever Mr Preston is, he's a cheap impostor whose prose employs words like 'goop', 'gunk' and 'goo'. Crichton didn't.But then there's the technology. Crichton's time travel hadOK, before I start with my review i just want to point out that a movie based on this book is rumored to be in the works. I believe I read Disney bought the rights for it and the other Crichton's book called Pirate Latitudes. This could be good and bad since it is sure to be rated PG or PG-13 with minimum on screen violence. Basically, it could be just another version of Honey, I shrunk the Kids movie. Anyway, on to the book. The concept of small humans surviving the environment and being chased
I read this about a month ago, and only now have I realized that this needs a better review from me. For a Crichton (or half a Crichton) novel, this really has a low rating. At first I couldn't understand why, because this really has to be one of my favorite novels.After reading a lot of reviews, I realized that people were rating this book based on their past experience with Crichton's novels. I will be honest and say that this was my first novel of Crichton, so maybe that's the reason for my

So it looks like this was another unpublished novel that was found after Michael Crichton's death. How many of these are there?I wonder if I will be able to tell when Richard Preston takes over the writing.UPDATE:Hmm. This is an interesting book for me to rate. I am a HUGE Michael Crichton fan, and the premise of this book was pure Crichton at his best. It's frustrating that it was unfinished though, as we have no way of knowing where he was taking this story. Richard Preston did his best, and I

Micheal Crichtons Micro allowed one to entertain the thought of nanotechnology as inventive enough to even shrink human beings and other living organisms into micro-people. In this novel, a group of science students set off to Hawaii to fulfill their dreams of working in the perfect lab that theyve been promised. When they get there, though, they are faced with being shrunk themselves and having to survive the severe problems that accompany that, as well as escaping the crazy CFO of Nanigen
My first and so far last Michael Crichton Novel was "Jurassic Park". Now I've read "Miro". Again, the author(s) explore(s) a part of new technology and the dark sides of it. But as expected from Crichton he did it in a highly realistic and intelligent way. The book definitely is a page-turner with a lot of surprises! I especially liked the descriptions of the Hawaiian fauna and flora, the green hell the students suddently found themselves in. A lot of fun, definitely to be recommended.
