Title: Good idea quickly fades
Review: Mr. Chrichton, always inventive, has a good idea in this book. Unfortunately, he has become so used to writing movies that he actually cuts this thing up like a movie and at the same time turns it into a chase instead of a story.I missed seeing Mr. Crichton explore the universe (or multiverse) in which he has placed his characters. I think he actually used the scene where someone starts sliding over a cliff (a la Jurassic Park) three times! It's very weak in this respect and really destroys what should have been a good read.Mr. Crichton doesn't lack skill or intelligence, but he has become too used to the Hollywood perspective, and he has lost or misplaced his storytelling sense.EKW
