Just this week I started to try and get back into reading, so I'm starting with something easy.
Michael Crichton's "Congo"
I know the man was a bit of a chud, and some of his books have some, problematic elements. But god damn am I just a sucker for his brand of sci fi tech thriller.
Chrichton doesn’t get enough credit for knowing how to write actions scenes. There’s something in his prose that really grips you and gets the adrenaline pumping even if the rest of his writing elements aren’t the greatest. The michael bay of novels
Great way of describing it. He has about 5 different archtypes for his characters that he uses in every book, and they are never really fleshed out all that much, but besides that the action sequences are absolutely top notch, and I love the technical knowledge that he researches to more accurately describe whatever is going on. I mean, how many other fiction books regularly end with a bibliography??
