With the 30th anniversary of Jurassic Park (film) having just passed, I've had Michael Crichton on my mind. I was introduced to him with Prey in middle school (undoubtedly a little early for the material) and I consider his work to be hugely influential in my love for reading today.
Bearing in mind at the end there he got a bit controversial, I still love almost every Crichton book I've read and have a few cherished copies of Prey and Airframe in my collection (IMO an underrated title in his backlist).
Are you a Michael Crichton fan and if so which titles do you most enjoy? Who are some other pop fiction authors you enjoy or consider guilty pleasures?
I am not at all confident that anyone, least of all these two chuckleheads, are capable of adapting this series faithfully. IMO this is a story best kept to the page, at least for now.
I'm expecting original Dune (1984) levels bad.
