Next – Michael Chrichton
Next – Michael Chrichton
Michael Crichton has always based his novels around popular science topics of the day. Next is about stem cell research and the possibilities it holds for mankind. I flew through this book like I have through all his books in the past years, but somehow the form he was in when he wrote Jurassic Park has eluded him in his last few books. Cloning Dinosaurs seemed far fetched but he somehow made you believe it could be real and had you almost tear the pages to find out what will happen next. In Next, the birth of a talking “Humanzee” in a research lab and a parrot doing math problems just don’t turn out to be such an amazing story anymore.
