 A terrifying page-turner in classic Crichton tradition, masterfully combining the elements of a heart-pounding thriller with cutting-edge technology. the result is a tale so realistic, so scary, readers won?be able to put it down. Deep in the middle of the Nevada desert, the Xymos Corporation has built a state-of-the-art fabrication plant, surrounded by miles and miles of nothing but cactus and coyote. Eight people are trapped inside ?ecause outside, waiting for them, looking for them, is a self-replicating, fast-evolving swarm made up of predatory molecules that they themselves created. On a singular level, the molecules are seemingly harmless, but massed together, they form an intelligent organism that is anything but benign. It?getting bigger and more powerful by the hour, and it has targeted the eight humans as prey. they must find a way to stop this creature before it gets inside?less it?already too late...Once again, Michael Crichton combines scientific brilliance with relentless pacing to create an electrifyingly chilling techno-thriller.

I felt edgy all the way through this audio
I am not a fan of major scary but this book was definitely scary
I was also dubious about the escalation of the abilities of the nano particles
I could believe it if it was in nature but not man made
That’s what I hope, otherwise future generations are in for a torrid time
Men can’t be trusted to govern appropriately, let alone make this sort of leap forward

Like Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds

Nano research goes terribly wrong and corporate greed turns a blind eye.
Well narrated, 3D characters

So Believable

I enjoyed the first part of this book, human interest about a family and a ""house husband" but it became to cyber technical for me. Maybe just not for my baby boomer generation

too much technical information
