Screw Jurassic Park. Andromeda Strain was a masterpiece. And Crichton was the most eloquent critic of the global warming fraud in the world.

Andromeda Strain was wonderful, but the one I really liked was The Eaters of the Dead, now known as The Thirteenth Warrior.

Andromeda Strain was a masterpiece. I can think of only two books that I read from start to finish without putting down. Andromeda Strain was one of them.

I thought Jurassic Park was entertaining, but Andromeda Strain was indeed a masterpiece. I couldn’t stomach the movie they did eariler this year.

Even Global Warming Climate Change "scientists" didn't provide as many cites as Crichton.
He had a way of making anything scientific (genetics, climate change, aviation accident investigation, engineering, ...) accessible to the rest of us.
While Clancy-clones are throwing out terms, Crichton actually understood them and used them effectively.
