Author Michael Crichton Dies
So sad...he was only 66 and died after a battle with cancer.
Crichton was an unbelieveable writer. Anyone who can come up with Jurassic Park is definitely in a league of their own!My Blog: http://amysreallife.wordpress.com

I read all his stuff. It's a shame that, that's all there will be. Though not generally people's pick for his best writing, NEXT was my personal favorite.

I have never read his books, but my DH and DS have. DS was only six years old when he read Jurassic park. The book inspired him to write dinosaur stories himself.

How sad. He was such a great writer.
