Heard on the news today that author Michael Chricton died on Nov 4. I eagerly looked forward to each of his new books.... alas, no more. Here are a few of his novels. Also, he was the creative mind/exec producer behind Television series ER.

I have read almost all of his works except for those published the last few years and those from his earlier years under his pen name John Lange.
