Wilson.  The novel's called The Andromeda Evolution and the marketing folks have apparently decided Crichton's name needs to be plastered across the cover and spine in huge letters, while the real author's name is tucked away at the bottom in small print.  I'd probably be a little miffed if I were Daniel, but then he probably knew that going in when he decided to write a sequel to a dead author's novel.  In any case, as shown at the end of the original book, the Andromeda Strain is mutating and this book will show what all occurs as a result.  I'm going in with cautiously optimistic hopes that it'll be a good read.Johnathan</blockquote>
