I’m a huge Michael Crichton fan, you know, the guy who wrote Jurassic Park. He actually wrote lots of other books, every one a masterpiece, but this may be my favorite (and it’s hard to pick a favorite Chrichton, I am second guessing myself as I wrote this!).

In this book, one of his longest, Crichton tackles climate change, and no, don’t roll your eyes, this is a face paced thriller that will have you struggling to discern science from fiction.

From Ben's list on The best books for when you really need to get away, without actually getting away.
