Fun collection, easy listen. The books were all fast-paced and although the characters weren't that exciting, the events were interesting and the topics were vast. This is a great starter collection for Michael Crichton.
So this Audio CD has three of Michael Chrichton's books Abridged on it.
Airframe: 1 Star : I'm glad this book was abridged and only three CD's. I had a hard time getting through this part. Wont be reading the full book anytime soon.
The Lost World: 5 Stars : Loved this book when I read it years ago. Will probably re-read it soon.
Timeline: 5+ Stars : Fantastic book, one of my favorites. Worth reading the whole thing again and again!
While I have not yet read Airframe, I have read both The Lost World and Timeline and very much enjoyed both of those. Each of those two novels are in my top 5 Crichton novels, right up there with Jurassic park and Congo. I have heard a lot of negative things about Airframe, but being Crichton is one of my top 3 authors, I will eventually give it a go. But if you, like me, are also a fan of his, then you could do so much worse than The Lost World or Timeline. Because I haven't read Airframe yet, I'll give this a 4/5 rating. If it was just the other two novels it would be an easy perfect 5 stars.
"Better than average from Crichton. Reviewers ding it as a poor imitation of Twain, but this trip to the medieval past has a fun mix of weird quantum physics and history."
