The Andromeda Strain (science fiction) book review

"The Andromeda Strain", by Michael Crichton is just one of his many great science fiction novels. This book revolves around a scientific laboratory that is working on a cure for a new disease that has quite literally fallen out of the sky. the disease was brought down from a secret satellite sent up and has already spread to a whole time killing virtually everyone. This novel focuses on how 5 scientist work together in this government funded laboratory to cure this disease that kills instantly and even to possibly save the world. The novel is written in a 3rd person not fully omnipotent view, but it basically takes turns and goes inside each persons mind with what they are thinking and what they are saying making the reader know what is going on, but not letting them know to much. I would definitely recommend this book to a friend, because it is a fun book, and left me on the edge of my seat every time I had to put it down.
