The one thing i did not like about the book were the pages between Flagstaff and Gareda. I felt that this part of the book was very anticlimactic and not exciting. The conversation that Evans has with Hoffman is an interesting chapter, however as a whole the plot looses a lot. I realize that global warming and particular situations were being explained and expanded on. It was just a disappointment after so much action at Mt. Terror and in Flagstaff.
Needless to say, Crichton does a great job of wrapping up the novel with the scenes in Pavutu. I found the gruesome details both intense and appalling. I thought that ending the book with action and the surprise of Morton being alive was a great way to bring the plot round circle.
A+ Crichton..................
Too much pontificating???
