The title of this 2019 novel immediately evokes a trip down memory lane. Childhood memories of a devious virus from outer space that threatens our world. There are fully suited up scientists, muffled voices and fearful eyes behind shiny glass visors, and despite the benefit of a secure facility in full biological lockdown the scientists are outwitted by the virus time and again. Andromeda Strain, the title of the 1969 book / 1971 film made us look up at the stars and as if their indifferent twinkles and the coldness of space was not terrible enough, all of a sudden we understood there was, in addition, a merciless unfeeling evil out there. Obviously, Andromeda Evolution, the long overdue continuation of Crichton’s Andromeda Strain, was not written by the master himself for Crichton had passed away in 2008. Nevertheless, I would call this a worthy successor to the iconic thriller Andromeda Strain of 1969, all the while wondering if Crichton would agree. Sadly the master himself is not with us anymore and we shall never know. Perhaps he would like the way the author pays him well-deserved homage by commenting on key events in the book with quotes by Crichton. Andromeda Strain ended with a cliffhanger and Andromeda Evolution’s plot dovetails nicely into where it was left off so many years ago. Even the fifty year technology gap was bridged seamlessly - a feat not easily accomplished. I had a lot of hope for this one since I loved the original. But you can tell MC was not involved before his passing on really writing this book. It tried to hard to be him while being something way over the top. It was too much of too many things, and felt as though at least 3 different writers with their own vision wrote parts of the book. It had potential but left me not caring about the surviving characters or the plot as a whole. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
