Holy crap that was unexpected. I had no idea he was battling cancer. I really enjoy his books and have read almost all of them.
Sad indeed.
oh wow
Man that sucks, I read all of his books and I really liked the guy.
Seriously, 2008 needs to end, WTF...
No! I just found out about him in High School. The first book I read by him was the Andromeda Strain. Since then I considered him my favorite author. I have yet to read all his books. He was truly a brilliant mind. I can't believe this happened. I didn't even know he had cancer...
Damn this definitely blows... big time
RIP good sir. Your contributions will be remembered for a long time to come.
Q_Q
damn out of nowhere, blows. he alone got me into reading when i was really young.
holy crap that sucks
congo was my shit
Nooooooooooooooooooooo ;;
I love his books. Andromeda Strain was freaking good... Got Next sitting on my headboard waiting to read.
I think I have read all of his books. I enjoyed them all with the exception of the Jurassic Park sequels. Those books were damn near unreadable trash. #3 was actually WORSE than the movie.
2008. What a bitch.
On the bright side, nobody will write jurassic park 4...though I don't think crichton was involved much with 3 anyway.
Terrible... He was such a great writer. My first Michael Crichton book was Airframe and I got sucked into it from start to finish...
One of my all time favorite Authors.
what a year.
wow... I haven't read any of his more recent works, I think the last I read was Airframe. I used to be huge into his novels back in the day.
No more '08 good celebrity deaths, please. Can't you just take Amy Winehouse or Paris Hilton instead of genuine human beings for a change?
