Jordan_E Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 When the Big C gets ahold of you... Hard to image there not being another Crichton novel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFo Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Shocking and very sad. Sphere is one of my favorite books. He will be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonJam Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 (edited) I read a lot of his stuff as well as a teenager. Very exciting stuff, most of it. He will be missed. [edit to add] That's not to say you have to be a teenager to appreciate his books! I used to read a lot of plot-driven books when I was younger, and Crichton wrote some of the best, that's all.

JoeyN Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 As a kid I was always into dinosaurs. Seeing Jurassic Park for the first time on the big screen made me a huge fan of his work. Read most of his stuff over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 That is sad. I have read many of his books and was always surprised that so many of his books became movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHiL Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Great Author!! Loved his work.. Sad to hear him go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camp Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 That's not exactly a detailed news report. Anyone know what he died from? Andromeda Strain, perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magness Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 This Sucks I always thought he consistently came up with interesting premises for his books. Whether you felt he delivered on that premise in whichever book or not - they were almost always an interesting idea or concept and made for some great movies from time to time too. He will be missed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
