SynopsisYears before Jurassic Park, Michael Chrichton was known as The New York Times bestselling master of the techno-thriller. The three mesmerizing super-sellers in this collection--including his first novel, The Andromeda Strain--have sold well over 4 million copies and qualify as modern classics. Perfectly plotted stories that are fantastic, unbelievable and yet, somehow, very real, these novels pull the reader into bizarre situations full of spell-binding suspense, offering three great examples of the author's genius.
I'm reading the book for the first time. I remember as a kid watching the movie. It was the most advanced scifi movie of it's time. With the Chinese biological attack against the People of the United States with Covid19 this book is a perfect example of how bad things can get. Government overreach, arrogance and ignorance was the problem with the Andromeda Strain just as it is the problem with Covid19.
