Prey

Let me start my next series as a review of the books that I read.

Before that, I read all sorts of books both fiction and non-fiction and disappointingly to some, there is not much romance in most of the books I read.

Let me start off with a review of the book the book that I read last week.

Prey by Michael Crichton

A overview of the Book:

This book is about a menace created by a self- generating and highly evolving new generation of nano particles which have been programmed as a predator.

My review:

Crichton was his usual amazing self. He gave me the feel of what it is to be like being a part of the evolving industry, a combo of nanotech, biotech and computers. This book like any other book of his gave a feel of a fun to read text book. You will definitely end up learning a lot more and it is not boring either. In fact the book was unputdownable.

However, at many a times I felt my inadequate knowledge in the field of science. I did not get this disturbing feeling in the other novels. The technology we so often talk about seems to be more complex to understand and the narration of manufacturing process of the nano particles was a little difficult to visualize.

The story narration of how he fights and wins over the seemingly small but monstrous particles is a very compelling read. MC balances the personal and work life story well. But many times gave me a feel that he is undermining emotions esp. during the last part.

I am not giving you a narration of the story itself, so as not to kill the suspense.

I would definitely recommend this book to you if you prefer reading futuristic non fictional fiction.
