Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Yet another terrifically entertaining Crichton thriller and—thanks to Richard Preston—we’re lucky to have it.” — Alan Cheuse, NPR's "All Things Considered"

Micro ranks with Crichton’s blockbusters The Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park, and Preston deserves praise for polishing the novel and making it sing.” — Associated Press

“A fast-paced mix of adventure and cutting-edge science, a novel that takes us deep into a fascinating, if violent, microscale universe…. [An] edge-of-the-seat technological thriller…. It is wonderful to see Crichton’s genius—the audacious mix of adventure and techno-speak that made him famous—on vivid display.” — Paul McEuen, Nature

“Fantastic.” — New York Post
