Sobre este artículo
This is a lovely copy of the first American edition, first printing [Harper Collins (NY 2002)]. The book is in fine condition and was signed by Michael Crichton with a black sharpie directly on the front end paper. The book has no remainder marks, no owner inscriptions or highlighting and no staining or marking. The dust jacket is not price-clipped ($26.95), has no creases, chips or tears and minimal shelf wear. The jacket is now protected by a Gaylord archival cover that is easily removable. Please do not hesitate to contact us for further information.
Sinopsis
E-book extras: Exclusive Crichton interview. Also: "As Explained by M.C.": Highlights from Michael Crichton's 30-plus years of making complex concepts understandable and entertaining. Plus: "The Crichton Canon," an introduction to his 12 prior novels and 4 works of nonfiction.In the Nevada desert, an experiment has gone horribly wrong. A cloud of nanoparticles -- micro-robots -- has escaped from the laboratory. This cloud is self-sustaining and self-reproducing. It is intelligent and learns from experience. For all practical purposes, it is alive. It has been programmed as a predator. It is evolving swiftly, becoming more deadly with each passing hour. Every attempt to destroy it has failed. And we are the prey.As fresh as today's headlines, Michael Crichton's most compelling novel yet tells the story of a mechanical plague and the desperate efforts of a handful of scientists to stop it. Drawing on up-to-the-minute scientific fact, Prey takes us into the emerging realms of nanotechnology and artificial distributed intelligence -- in a story of breathtaking suspense. Prey is a novel you can't put down. Because time is running out.
