About the author:
Michael Crichton is the best-selling author of State
of Fear, which takes the reader from the glaciers of Iceland to the volcanoes
of Antarctica, from the Arizona desert to the deadly jungles of the
Solomon Islands, from the streets of Paris to the beaches of Los
Angeles. The novel races forward on a roller-coaster thrill ride, all
the while keeping the brain in high gear. Gripping and thought
provoking, State of Fear is Michael Crichton at his very best.
