Title: Tired Formula
Product review: The plot and characters of this book, which is just Crichton's standard formula, are derived, contrived and absolutely predictable. The cast, for there is no doubt that this will be a movie, consists solely of cartoon characters, and the plot line is nothing more than unrelated "Perils of Pauline" type skits which are strung together in a flacid attempt to build tension and suspense leading to the contrived life or death deadline. This book would be good reading for ages 10 to 14.
