I rated this novel at 3 stars. The premise of the book is the evolution of the novel Andromeda Strain by Michael Crichton released back in the 70s. This book should not be confused as a sequel to the original Andromeda Strain, regardless of the title. The author evolves the original strain to something totally different and completely unbelievable. The speed at which the strain evolves and the intent of the evolutions really stretch your imagination to the limit. The elevator ride is beyond ridiculous as is the "cliff hanger".
If, on the other hand, for someone who has not read the original book by Crichton, and takes this book as a standalone science fiction work then I guess it works. Will there be a book 3 in the Andromeda saga? If there is I will probably pick up a copy to read but it won't be on my list of must read books.
