Prey
by: Michael Crichton
Jack Forman, is an out of work scientist whose wife is a top executive at Xymos, a company engaged in molecular manufacturing & nano-technology. Jack knows something is wrong but what he fears is nothing compared to what he learns when he joins the team at Xymos. A programming oversight has led to a swarm of nano particles that is on the loose in the Nevada Desert. It is intelligent, can reproduce itself and is getting more dangerous by the hour. Now it is a race against time for Jack to find a way to stop the swarm before mankind is nothing more than it's prey -(H.G.)
Timeline
by: Michael Crichton
Who said stories about time travel were dead? Crichton brings it back with style! A group of anthropologists are sent back in time to rescue their friend professor Johnston. Knights in shining armor, lords and ladies, and 14th century France! As the technicians work in the present to bring them all home safely, some of the group must suit up with sword and shield to defend their very lives. This great mix of science, history, and edge of your seat plot twists will make you come away from this story a believer in time travel. -(H.G.)
You may have seen the movie, or one of it's sequels, but you have to read the original story as told by John Russo. The classic zombies come alive in this tale of the unexplained, where the bodies of dead people are reanimated and hunger for living flesh. Even if you've never heard of the "Living Dead" before, you'll enjoy this horrorific tale. -(H.G.)
