The Andromeda Evolution

By Daniel H. Wilson

Adult Fiction, Techno-Thriller

Reviewed by Joshua   

    Fifty years after the first contact with the deadly microbe known as the Andromeda Strain, a mapping drone observes a mysterious anomaly rising up out of the Brazilian rainforest.

    Soon, a team consisting of the world's top scientists is dispatched to learn all they can about the microbe's second appearance.  But the Andromeda is evolving and the clock is counting down to an outbreak of unimaginable proportions with life-threatening consequences.

    The team must navigate the thick forest, reach the quarantine zone and attempt to enter the foreboding anomaly, all while trying to figure out how to stop the Andromeda Strain.  If they don't, all life on earth will die.

    The Andromeda is back...are we ready for the evolution?

    While not written by Michael Crichton himself, this novel is the sequel to his masterpiece The Andromeda Strain.  Daniel H. Wilson does a superb job of imitating Crichton's unique style by combining scientific explanation with suspenseful thrills and action.  This heart pounding novel is a phenomenal tribute to Michael Crichton's legacy as a science fiction writer.  It is a novel you will want to read over and over again.  This book will be a fantastic treat to all fans of science fiction.
