I'm reading Nick Cutter's upcoming horror novel [b:The Deep|22119322|The Deep|Nick Cutter|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1404527251s/22119322.jpg|40713268] right now and it's reminded me of how much I enjoyed Sphere, Michael Crichton's best novel. It was my favorite book when I was a kid. I remember ...
I never though I'd say it, but there. You wont miss anything. It's not that the book is bad. Writing is serviceable, and plot is interesting and moves. But it's the kind of story that is better served by a speedy delivery. It lacked most of the punch of the movie. One of the aspects that flagged...
One of the fun things about reading is coming across echoes of other books you've read. I recently finished After Worlds Collide, and in one scene, a couple of characters discover a kind of plaque or road marker left by an alien civilization. On it is a design; not words or any real picture, just a ...
Never dreaded any chapter, and that's pretty rare for me. I mostly just browse through a chapter of a book because it becomes boring or seem useless to me. Sphere on the other hand was very consistent, consistent with suspense. You never know what could happen next and there were a lot of twists in ...
I enjoyed this so much more than Jurassic Park. Even though there were a lot of infodump regarding physics and space, I actually enjoyed it, but then again, I am fascinated by the subject. I do think it could've used a lot more narrative, though... it does read like it's a movie script, hah. But ove...
One of the first books I ever read, and will always hold a big place in my heart. There's always room for black-hole time-travel under-water space-monsters that's all in your mind.
After trying and failing to finish Jurassic Park but having enjoyed Eaters of the Dead I gave Michael Crichton another try.I don't know If I enjoyed it or no. I really don't. The writing style is bland and it reads like a script. It's a fast-paced thriller no doubt about it. The plot itself moves fo...
Reseña de Sphere, de Michael Crichton. Mi parte favorita del libro es que juega con la curiosidad del lector. El entorno es el misterioso, misterioso océano y la historia comienza con una misteriosa ocurrencia: En el fondo del mar se encuentra una especie de nave espacial rodeada de 300 años...
Sphere is a frustrating book (not as good as Jurassic Park, better than Congo). I really liked the premise behind it, and even the way it all played out, but it dragged out a bit too long, and the real kicker, I didn't care a thing about any of the characters. You'd think I'd care after spending 371...
