Chrighton's knack of using plausible sounding, well reasoned scientific theories behind his sic fi served him well in this one. (


His best book, IMO, is Sphere. It was a psychological rollercoaster. Unfortunately, the movie was terrible.

I never understood why they didn't include that in the movie. It added a ton of suspense to the book.




Probably would've added another 30-45 minutes to the movie.

Sphere is my favorite of his too. Congo was also gripping. Both those books captivated me more than Jurassic Park but that's prob Bc I had already seen the movie.

The book is far superior to the stupid Spielberg movie. Lost world is not as good, but some of the other Crichton books are awesome. Sphere is probably his best, most underrated book. The movie blew arse.
