Summary: Who would study medicine to become an Author?
Review: As a high school student I would challenge my instructors about isuses raised in this tome, I got no significant responces and carried the book for years. Probably the only book I have read a dozen times, fiction does cause you to suspend reality.

Summary: The Greatest!
Review: This is one of the best books I've ever read! A first for Crichton!

Summary: This book is probably one of the best books by Crichton
Review: Andromeda Strain is a suspenseful book about an unknown bacteria found in a satellite that crashed back to earth. A very interesting novel about how scientists would deal with this strange and new bacteria. A subject little written about.

Summary: A Crichton Classic
Review: Great book if you like the "Crichton Style". Here you will find the classic plot of an unknown menace threating the human race, and a group of brilliant scientists trying to stop it. Even though the story looks a lot like other books from the author (take for example Jurassic Park), it's very entertaining and will keep you reading it until the last page.

Summary: Good book, not his best
Review: I must admit that when I read this I was already spoiled by Crichton's later books, which were great (Jurassic Park, Sphere, Congo). Its a good book, but definately not his best.
Rating:
Summary: Awesome medical thriller
Review: Crichton executes his trademark ability in writing killer fiction with a touch of page-turning suspense...here, he narrates the efforts of a team of scientists who strive to overcome an alien virus' attempt for destruction. I usually find it difficult to finish novels but when I began reading this thriller masterpiece, there's no putting it down. I've been a fan of (medical) suspense thrillers but this has been my favorite

Summary: A teenagers dream of a book.
Review: As a 10th grader reading this title for summer reading I found myself fourced into a corner. I don't enjoy reading. It isn't something I find enjoyable, but this title was something different. Unlike "The Hot Zone" this title combines the concepts of outerspace and life on earth. The author brings to mind the thought of life from outside of earth, living on earth as our most hostile virus. Thoughs that believe that we are alone in this universe are mistaken and are in for a big suprise
Rating:
Summary: Not Crichtons best, but good
Review: Andromeda Strain was good, but I think it doesn't rival Sphere or Jurassic Park. It had a great theme, but the ending was a little depressing, I mean, you just expect a little more from a killer organism then simply transforming to eat rubber, don't you

Summary: THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN
Review: It all started when the Scoop VI satellite landed from the earth's outer atmosphere with a bacteria and landed in the tiny Arizona twon of Piedmont.
Quickly the government organizes a team of experts to examine the satellite and and find a cure for the bacteria (if they can) that clots the blood and kills the individual within 3 seconds. The team works day and night to find the link between the towns only survivors and the novel reaches a horrifying climax
