Title: Long on Technical, Short on Character
Review: To be a fan of Michael Crichton, you have to turn a blind eye to character development and appreciate his thouroughly researched technical points that he makes in his books. In "State of Fear" his points on the false prophecy of "global warming" ring true but his character development does not. Evans and Sarah are superheroes who survive a fall in an ice crevass, staying alive in sub-zero temperatures, live through individual lightening strikes, he through a bite from a poisonous octopus and last but not least, a tsunami. All from October 6th through October 23rd, no less. But still I like Critchton because I always know what I am getting---long on technical but short on character.
