Query: Please tell me Crichton didn't write this!

Read ANY of Crichton's other books, including his mediocre collection of memoirs, "Travels." This book never gets off the ground as Sphere, Congo, or Jurassic Park did so quickly. The plot and writing style are so different from normal Crichton work that I continually checked the front cover to make sure that I had not picked up another book of the same title by a different author. If you read any of Crichton's other works and loved them, read them again and save yourself the money on this one. I only decided to give this book 2 stars because I feel the Crichton deserves more, not to mention the fact that I don't give 1-star reviews.
