Paul and I were talking Sci-Fi and I mentioned the passing of Dan O'Bannon, the story writer of "Alien", on December 17th. Paul mentioned your posting about Alien and our discussion turned to how freaked out he was when he read it which lead me to thinking of how the "Jurassic Park" novel freaked me out so much during a vivid description of raptor attack that I had to read another 100 pages to calm down. Here's how the circle gets completed - I then told Paul that I had finished Solomon's Grave and how reading it reminded me of how I feel when I read a Michael Crichton novel. You both seem to write in scences that make it easy to stop and put the book down but are so well described that it made me excited to keep reading on.<br /><br />Oh, and you are correct Fish do read - even works by Daniel G.
