mysticalforest, Michael Crichton has died, according to CNN, after a battle with cancer.
Crichton's work gave me some of my earliest exposure to science fiction. Sentence for sentence, his writing wasn't beautiful, but he knew how to tell a story and he picked fascinating subjects to tell stories about. I wasn't a fan of his later work, but I enjoyed the hell out of his earlier stuff.
Thank you for the entertainment, Mr. Crichton.
