I just read that Michael Crichton died. There will be a lot of stories about him over the next several days, but I just wanted to make a quick comment. I think Crichton did a lot to help legitamize Sci-Fi as a genre. He may not have written “hard” Sci-Fi like Asimov or others, but he always had that edge there. Personally, I always liked Timeline (the book, not the movie), but I encourage everyone to read at least one Crichton novel in their life. You may get hooked and read them all.
