Airframe: Crichton Tells All About Airplanes

Date of Review:  Mar 25, 2002
The Bottom Line: A fun read that can make you feel better about getting on board a plane
Review: I like Michael Crichton's writing a lot! Having said that, I'm beginning to find it a bit formulaic. The typical Crichton novel begins with a group of experts working in a technical field. A new member then enters the group for some reason...

STALL! STALL! STALL!

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2001
The Bottom Line: Highly entertaining, but I only give it four stars because of the profanity and lack of action.
Review: NT-22 Flight 545 from Hong Kong to Los Angeles is having a smooth flight.

ALMOST TOO MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT AIRPLANES

Date of Review:  Mar 14, 2001
The Bottom Line: Not his best work, but Crichton tells a good story as well as anyone and I would recommend it.
Review: Michael Crichton is one of my favorite authors. I've already favorably reviewed "Timeline" and I have read many of his other novels including "The Andromeda Strain", "The Terminal Man", "Sphere" and "The Jurassic Park" books.

Professional Reviews

  Menand, Louis, New York Review of Books: "Crichton wants to make your pulse race from almost the first page--or more to the point, the first frame. And he is extremely good at it. His books are essentially screenplays with a few editorials tucked in. The editorials are the interesting part...He's against self-righteous reporters, internationalist businessmen, and ambitious women too."
