One of Crichton's better early works, but again s
I've been reading many of Crichton's early works. This one is better than some. This one is very dated politically and doesn't have a significant feminine character. While it suffers from some gaps in believability, it was an enjoyable listen.

Good early Crichton
This is a decent Crichton thriller. It’s got a fast pace, increasing tension and reasonably good characters. The “evil genius” villain is a bit overdone, and some of the story requires significant suspension of disbelief. But overall it works even if you can guess some of it

Apt Title for this Thrilling Work
This was another great early Crichton effort that was published under his pseudonym John Lange. This was a crime thriller about a political radical who planned on releasing nerve has in San Diego during the Republican convention and while the President was attending. A courageous State Department agent matches with with the madman. Twists and turns abound and though dated in some areas, it still holds up well today. Christopher Lane does a wonderful job narrating the action. You can see the early influences that will color his later techno thrillers. A great read/listen.
