Prey

De: Michael Crichton

Narrado por: George Wilson

In the Nevada desert, an experiment has gone horribly wrong. A cloud of nanoparticles -- micro-robots -- has escaped from the laboratory. This cloud is self-sustaining and self-reproducing. It is intelligent and learns from experience. For all practical purposes, it is alive. It has been programmed as a predator. It is evolving swiftly, becoming more deadly with each passing hour. Every attempt to destroy it has failed. And we are the prey.

As fresh as today's headlines, Michael Crichton'smost compelling novel yet tells the story of a mechanical plague and the desperate efforts of a handful of scientists to stop it. Drawing on up-to-the-minute scientific fact, Prey takes us into the emerging realms of nanotechnology and artificial distributed intelligence -- in a story of breathtaking suspense. Prey is a novel you can't put down. Because time is running out.

Prey

I have listened to this book several times. it is a very interesting and four-sided but that I enjoy on both in the entertainment level and a Syfy. I suppose some form of this might actually happen in the future dealing with nanotechnology.

Incredible

Really enjoyed the book. I live remotely and this kept my attention. Really enjoyed it!

Prey

If you like Crichton, you will like this too. I liked it but not his best work. But I would still recomend it.

Classic Crichton

Would you consider the audio edition of Prey to be better than the print version?

Never read the print version so????

What other book might you compare Prey to and why?

None, Crichton stands alone and above.

Which scene was your favorite?

Well the climax, of course, no teasers

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Run, if you can

Any additional comments?

I love Crichton, so im biased, he's the best and no equals

George Wilson is a great narrator.

I really enjoyed this book. The story flows well and kept me listening. It plays out in my mind like a Sci-Fi horror movie, an experiment that goes horribly wrong. I'm a huge fan of Sci-Fi and this book was right up my alley.
