Overview
Michael Crichton's Prey is a terrifying page-turner that masterfully combines a heart-pounding thriller with cutting-edge technology.
Deep in 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 coyotes. Eight people are trapped. A self-replicating swarm of predatory molecules is rapidly evolving outside the plant. Massed together, the molecules form an intelligent organism that is anything but benign. More powerful by the hour, it has targeted the eight scientists as prey. They must stop the swarm before it is too late...
In Prey, Michael Crichton combines scientific brilliance with relentless pacing to create an electrifying, chilling techno-thriller

Technologic advancements come at a price .
null null. - 6 months agoMichael Crichton, author of "Jurassic Park" and King of the Techno-Thriller, outdid himself on this 2002 novel focusing on the development of advanced nanotechnology. Fact and fiction blend on each page thanks to Crichton's rich academic prose and sharp, human dialogue between characters who may not have humanity's best interest at heart. This book is genuinely terrifying, with scenes that have given me shivers for years, and I cannot recommend it enough.
