A review by zendthyl
Prey by Michael Crichton
3.75
Graphic: Body horror and Death
Moderate: Child abuse
Minor: Drug abuse, Drug use, and Car accident
To elaborate on content warnings:
Death and body horror are pretty self explanatory here.
Animal death: A rabbit is killed and its dead body is described in detail.
Child abuse: There is a scene where a mother gets frustrated while changing a baby and hits the baby repeatedly on the legs. This is kind of glossed over by the narrative and never brought up again.
Car accident: a character drives over a cliff off page. They survive but are injured. We see the aftermath but not in graphic detail.
Drug use/abuse: no drugs are actually used but several characters suggest that erratic behaviour and changes in temperament in two of the main cast are caused by covert drug use
