This was my first Michael Crichton book, and I absolutely loved it! I think I’ve found my genre—science fiction. Obvious research went into the book, and I agree with the bibliography statement, "blessed by some of the best science writing for the general reader."
The shifts in perspectives added a unique layer to the narrative, keeping me engaged throughout. Overall, Micro really fired up my imagination and kept me wanting to read page after page.
I can’t wait to dive into my next Michael Crichton book!

A typical great read by Crichton! The blend of science and survival mystery never disappoints. This level of shrinking, especially in regards to medical technology does not seem to far fetched, making this intriguing and terrifying.
