Andromeda Strain - done.

Alright, I'm impressed. The book was a quick read (even though it was 300 pages) and really kept me interested. Even some of the more monotonous sections were seemingly intriguing, as the intertwined storyline was solid.

The storytelling element was the most striking to me though, as you are reading things as if they are happening from one second to the next. And yet, the narration takes over at a couple of points and it pretty much states that the characters are making some sort of mistake and are going down the wrong path. It then even suggests what they could have done to right their course. It seemed to add a different dynamic to the story, since it kept you trying to unravel what was occurring.

Honestly, this book is a two thumbs up read.

Now on to The Face of Fear by Dean Koontz. I had never heard of it before, but heres the little blurb on it: "Graham Harris was once one of the world's foremost mountain climbers, until a fall five years earlier left him with a lame leg, a fear of heights...and a frightening psychic ability in which he can see murders as they are happening. Harris lives in New York City, where a murderous madman known as the Butcher has been mutilating young women. While he is giving an interview on live television one night, Graham senses the Butcher claiming another victim. When the madman realizes that [Graham] poses a threat to him he formulates a plan to kill the clairvoyant. While working late one night in his office building, Graham senses that the Butcher is coming to his floor aboard an elevator. With his girlfriend Connie at his side, Graham begins a long night of playing hide and seek to try and avoid the psychopath's grip."

Hopefully its equally interesting.
