One my favourite authors is Michael Crichton. He has written several best-selling novels such as Jurassic Park and its sequel The Lost World, The Andromeda Strain, Eaters the Dead, and Rising Sun. He is also the creator the award-winning television series ER..

Michael Crichton is a wonderful storyteller. He spins his tales with true-to-life characters, and his intricately woven plots are realistic. Michael Crichton does a good deal research, for all his science fiction novels are based known scientific facts and sound theories. He does not invent unbelievable fantasies to attract readers like some I do not want to name.

For example, Jurassic Park, Michael Crichton painstakingly portrays how the dinosaurs were cloned. The scientists first look for preserved blood-sucking insects the Mesozoic Era trapped ambers: the hard, translucent fossilised resin originating extinct coniferous trees. Next, they look for traces dinosaur blood these insects. The tiny amounts that they extract the insects are then used to clone the dinosaurs.

One can discern that Michael Crichton's knowledge palaeontology and medical science is truly astounding when they read his two dinosaur novels.

In The Andromeda Strain, Crichton tells the tale a deadly micro-organism brought to Earth by a satellite. The bacteria kill people seconds by clotting their blood solid. Again, his immense scientific knowledge comes into play when he writes this novel about how five scientists race against time to find a solution to nullify the effects the Andromeda Strain. This was his first book written 1969, and after more than thirty years, it is still print and remains great demand by readers worldwide.

Many Michael Crichton's novels have been made into box-office hits. It is undeniable that this master storyteller can attract readers and audiences alike regardless the medium, be it books or movies.
