From Michael Crichton, the #1 bestselling author of Jurassic Park and The Andromeda Strain, comes an astounding, eye-opening look at the world of genetics: Next.

Is a loved one missing some body parts? Are blondes becoming extinct? Is everyone at your dinner table of the same species? Humans and chimpanzees differ in only 400 genes; is that why a chimp fetus resembles a human being? And should that worry us? There’s a new genetic cure for drug addiction—is it worse than the disease?

Devilishly clever, Next blends fact and fiction into a breathless tale of a new world where nothing is what it seems, and genetic ownership shatters our assumptions.

Rather than being one clear narrative, this is really about 10 short stories on a similar theme (scary genetic science) jumbled together. It's not until you're passed the halfway point that any of these stories come together. Dave the Chimp/human hybrid is the best part of the story, but doesn't arrived until about 3 hours into this 6.5 hour audiobook. There are two young boys called Jamie, which is MEANT to be confusing... but it meant that I stopped listening while I was trying to work it out... However, this is really well researched and genuinely scary at times. The performance is excellent! His voice really makes the characters distinct and vivid. I loved the bonus interview with Crichton at the end, as this was his last published book published before he died, I got quite emotional listening to him!

Jumbled Crichton, but still great science thiller!
