Micro

In the vein of Jurassic Park, this high concept thriller follows a group of graduate students lured to Hawaii to work for a mysterious biotech company—only to find themselves cast out into the rain forest, with nothing but their scientific expertise and wits to protect them. An instant classic, Micro pits nature against technology in vintage Crichton fashion. Completed by visionary science writer Richard Preston, this boundary-pushing thriller melds scientific fact with pulse-pounding fiction to create yet another masterpiece of sophisticated, cutting-edge entertainment.

Michael Crichton spoke about working on Micro in three interviews before his death. He described the project as “an adventure story like Jurassic Park. I’m enjoying myself,” and said the novel “would be informative in a way that would be fun, and would give…some information about how our environment really is structured.”
