Great ideas, concepts and science but the story itself isnt that thrilling. Or maybe more the way in wich it is written. Also a really unsatisfying ending.

I remember reading The Andromeda Strain years ago, probably in high school when I went on a Micheal Crichton kick. It's a very good, tightly-written look at what could happen, should something return to Earth with a deadly, non-Terrestrial microorganism attached. It's also not really something that should be read during a global pandemic, since that's the most likely outcome of Andromeda getting out.
