Loved the book and the movie. Crichton said he based a lot of it on Beowulf, which reminds me of my sophomore English teacher reciting the book for us in the original Old English. He was a stage performer on the side and it was one of the most lasting educational experiences I ever had.

Timeline was such a fun book. Shame it was a horrible movie.

Like the Dark Tower, if you can only **** it up, don't do it.

I'm a big Crichton fan. I miss his work. It seems like he would have figured out a way to put a few things out posthumously.

They've released 3 books since he died. They've were ok, Micro was good.

Not "they", "he". Surely he did some research on the subject before crossing over.
