Michael Crichton's "Next", Did You Enjoy It?

Tweet

"Next" focuses on genetic engineering. Speaks about patenting, manipulation, and lack of conscience, in the administration of genetic material and human tissues. It reveals scientific inaccuracies with popular beliefs, and frightens with existing science. It chronicles the subject of morality, in a changing scientific world, that is advancing at a rapid speed. The story is solid and enticing. The characters are interesting, even if we receive a heap of em' to keep track of. Crichton is splendid at exploiting scientific topics. This novel is proof of that, intimidating us with situations that are easily relatable. In "Next" we receive talking animals that are charming and thrilling. We read about a speaking monkey called "Dave" and a bright parrot called "Gerard". The story as a whole delivers. The portion that does not, is the lack of concrete narration. The story is thrilling and captivating, but the description and choice of vocabulary is appalling and disheartening. Those Non-Crichton fans, will likely be alienated by the lack of depth and the absence of ambitious description. This novel WILL be enjoyed but ONLY by heavyweight M.C. fans.. Did you enjoy "Next"?
