Cold Storage by David Koepp
5.0
Loved it. Grand adventure, great characters, hilarious dialog, sci-fi bio-protagonists... what's not to like?
OK, i would have liked a little more science. The initial direction was heading into Andromeda Strain territory, but the biology detail kind of petered out. Maybe Michael Crichton just ruined it for everyone by being so awesome, but the author could have done a lot more with the lifeform IMO. We are all familiar with Ophiocordyceps by now so you have to do better than just a faster growing version.
Still, very fun read. i stayed up late to finish it and i haven't done that very often lately :)
