( Details ) ISBN: 0002005549 Published: November 2002 | Published by Harper Collins From the Publisher In the Nevada desert, an experiment has gone horribly wrong. A cloud of nanoparticles -- micro-robots -- has escaped from the laboratory. This cloud is self-sustaining and self-reproducing. It is intelligent and learns from experience. For all practical purposes, it is alive. It has been programmed as a predator. It is evolving swiftly, becoming more deadly with each passing hour. Every attempt to destroy it has failed. And we are the prey. As fresh as today's headlines, Michael Crichton's most compelling novel yet tells the story of a mechanical plague and the desperate efforts of a handful of scientists to stop it. Drawing on up-to-the-minute scientific fact, Prey takes us into the emerging realms of nanotechnology and artificial distributed intelligence -- in a story of breathtaking suspense. Prey is a novel you can't put down. Because time is running out. Reader Reviews Average Reader Review: Number of Reviews: 2 1. not his best work Reviewer: at from on Date: 1/29/2003 4:44:42 PM I normally really like Crichton's books, but this one just didn't pull me in at all. I can read A Case of Need over and over, this one I've stopped half way through and I feel no great need to continue... 2. Can't put it down! Reviewer: suzanne from Mississauga Date: 11/29/2002 5:41:07 PM I just started reading this book and already can't put it down! I'm purposefully reading it slowly as I don't want it to end. So far, I have to say it's right up there with Jurassic Park.
