Helpful Score: 3

12 hours of audio book - gentic fantasty/sci fi - but not that far off what is happening in today's bio labs across the world. Michael Crichton, who died recently aged just 66, had a passion for science and research. He dedicated an enormous amount of time to studying scientific papers and journals, and then allowed his well-informed imagination to wonder what would happen to people and our plant when the next great discovery happened, and when human greed was factored in. A long book but worth sticking with it. Includes some sadness and humor, not just scary science. Stayed tuned for the interview with the author at the very end.
