Re: Did anyone actually like the book?

[(Anonymous)]

I love his books! I love how he (tries) to pop in bits of science, including as many 'recent' article references as possible. I was delighted whenever there were PICTURES OF GENE SEQUENCING. Thing is, for all that he got loads of things wrong, now, by our time, when he was published a lot of what he referenced was accurate to the scientific knowledge of the time + his ideas of where it could go. Sure he cut and pasted from different studies and mixed it into something unrealistic, but the base knowledge and ideas were 50/50 accurate/fiction

So I find his books a lot of fun. I keep thinking I won't enjoy the next book of his in my to-read list but I've been pleasantly surprised and enjoyed them every time. Even the one's way out of my usual reading circle of comfort (really did not expect to enjoy Disclosure or Micro or Timeline or Next). *_______*
I just sit down...and can't put them away until I'm done *_*

Congo is my favourite book though. I loved that one a lot, then watched the movie and I was so angry/mad at the adaptation for being so faithless.


tl;dr I fucking love Chrichton, something about his stories and writing just hits all my buttons *_*

PS. Jurassic Park is great for nostalgia, even if things are so wrong. My sticking point will always be the frog DNA. Not knowing about feathers is forgivable, BUT THE FROG DNA. I get it was for the plot, but that's stretching the sci-fi a bit too far to me. I've have believed hormonal imbalances in the embryo's or temperature sex links over that XD But still fun to watch/read

Give me all the Crichton books plskthx

*OH, and I'm not a palaeontologist...but I am a zoologist ;) But I was introduced to the books by my paleontology-studying friend many years ago because she liked it and thought I would. So not all scientists hate it ;D
