A review by irongold
The Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton

3.0

A thriller about an alien virus that finds it way to earth on a satellite. Unfortunately, there is some language, most of it taking the Lords name in vain. The plot moved well, with only a few slow spots when characters(and us) were reading computer screens with a bunch of science stuff. I took a star off for the ending, which, though it tied everything up nicely, seemed a bit too anticlimactic. This is my first book of Crichton's that I have read, and hopefully his others will be as good.

"Nearly everyone involved had moments of great brilliance, and moments of unaccountable stupidity"
