Ugh. I JUST discovered that Michael Chrichton and James Patterson have collaborated on a book being released in a few days called Eruption 🌋 . The library wait list is months long and I have new release FOMO. Tell me not to buy it. Or enable me. 😅
@mcfate you are wise. I shall strive to hang on…
Neat trick, given that Crighton's been dead for nearly 20 years.
@Ubiety here’s the story:

@Ubiety it’s always hit or miss when a writer takes on someone else’s work after their passing… but I’m holding out hope it can work.
It's an interesting project.
@Ubiety last year I read a book called Land of Ash, it was recommended by a cosonaut who (unfortunately) left coso instead of using the tools…but I digress.
It was a super haunting work of fiction speculating what would happen if the Yellowstone Caldera erupted. I’ve been very interested in that kind of genre since.

If you can hold out for a month, there'll be cheap lightly-used copies on Amazon.
