Michael CrichtonNot long ago Pirates Latitude , a posthumous novel by Crichton, was released. I bought it, but it immediately turned out to be a story of little depth, which needed good editing, but above all to give the reader something more than the usual treasure hunts. The news is now that a new posthumous novel by Crichton, Micro , will be released on November 22nd by HarperCollins. Writer Richard Preston, author of the novels The Hot Zone and The Cobra Event , was chosen to complete the unfinished manuscript.
In addition to the text, Preston also had access to the outline, a bibliography of nearly 100 books and DVDs, as well as notes and research. The story is about some students in Hawaii who work for a mysterious biotechnology company. They end up in a rainforest and will be forced to make do with only their Special Data scientific skills and their ingenuity. “I was driven by a desire to honor the work and imagination of one of the most visionary and creative authors of our time,” Preston said in a statement. Instead I say what sense does all this make. But we'll talk about it soon in another article..I struggled to my feet and called out to my second, Mr. Calbhach Murray, a determined and reliable Irishman.
No one answered, but I heard voices shouting and a great commotion coming from the bridge. I staggered out of my cabin – the sea must have risen quite a bit – and went up on deck. I will never forget what I saw. We were in the Indian Ocean, within sight of Rakata Island and the Krakatau volcano, when I went down to the cabin to start writing. Now I could see clearly what had caused the explosion. An eruption never seen before. Krakatau seemed to have become the mouth of hell. The Sea Meteor was pitching terribly, my men were down and some were injured. The sky was turning the color of tar and, even from afar, I could distinguish the red of the lava and the clouds of ash rising in a gigantic black column.
