With the 30th anniversary of Jurassic Park (film) having just passed, I’ve had Michael Crichton on my mind. I was introduced to him with Prey in middle school (undoubtedly a little early for the material) and I consider his work to be hugely influential in my love for reading today.
Bearing in mind at the end there he got a bit controversial, I still love almost every Crichton book I’ve read and have a few cherished copies of Prey and Airframe in my collection (IMO an underrated title in his backlist).
Are you a Michael Crichton fan and if so which titles do you most enjoy? Who are some other pop fiction authors you enjoy or consider guilty pleasures?
Oh, the deed of paksenarrion is a great choice if you’re looking for a good, easy-reading fantasy trilogy with a very satisfying arc. It basically reads like a very well made d&d campaign.
Whelp, as someone who is currently on a Baldur’s Gate binge, you’ve sold me - will add to my TBR!
oh yeah, you’re gonna like it then :D glad to share, it’s not high literature but it’s been one of my favourite comfort reads for many years.
