Title: Crichton at his worst....(sigh!)
Review: I usually like what Crichton writes, but this book is awful.The Plot: Thin, and uninteresting, mixed with the old Corporate In-Fighting theme, repeated from Disclosure.The Writing: Crichton as usual. Sharp, undecorated text, not much value as true literature. Crichton doesn't usually write well. It's usually the plot that is interesting.The Characters: Cliche, all over again. A single mother with a child! Stressful and agitated corporate stereotypes.Boy, Hollywood is going to have a wild time making an awful film based on this novel. It'll be one of those fast-paced junk films with tolerable actors.My advice: Even if you love Crichton, this one is simply too boring. So sorry, Mike.
