Histoire
The year is A.D. 922. A refined Arab courtier, representative of the powerful Caliph of Baghdad, encounters a party of Viking warriors who are journeying to the barbaric North. He is appalled by their Viking customs - the wanton sexuality of their pale, angular women, their disregard for cleanliness...their cold-blooded human sacrifices. But it is not until they reach the depths of the Northland that the courtier learns the horrifying and inescapable truth.

Deep in the African rain forest, near the legendary ruins of the Lost City of Zinj, an expedition of eight American geologists are mysteriously and brutally killed in a matter of minutes. Ten thousand miles away, Karen Ross, the Congo Project Supervisor, watches a gruesome video transmission of the aftermath: a camp destroyed, tents crushed and torn, equipment scattered in the mud alongside dead bodies - all motionless except for one moving image - a grainy, dark, man-shaped blur.

War heroes aren't usually called out of semi-retirement and sent to the far reaches of the galaxy for a routine investigation. So when Colonel Carl Butler answers the call from an old and powerful friend, he knows it's something big - and he's not being told the whole story. A high councilor's son has gone MIA out of Cappa Base, the space station orbiting a battle-ravaged planet. The young lieutenant had been wounded and evacuated - but there's no record of him having ever arrived at hospital command.

Description
“Ingenious and beguiling.” - Time
“Crichton keeps us guessing at every turn in his best work since The Andromeda Strain.” - Los Angeles Times
“Sphere may be Crichton’s best novel, but even if it ranked only second or third, it would be a must for suspense fans.” - Miami Herald
A classic thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Crichton, Sphere is a bravura demonstration of what he does better than anyone: riveting storytelling that combines frighteningly plausible, cutting-edge science and technology with pulse-pounding action and serious chills. The gripping story of a group of American scientists sent to the ocean floor to investigate an alien ship, only to confront a terrifying discovery that defies imagination, Sphere is Crichton prime - truly masterful fiction from the ingenious mind that brought us Prey, State of Fear, and Jurassic Park.
Sphere was made into a film directed by Barry Levinson, which starred Dustin Hoffman, Sharon Stone, and Samuel L. Jackson.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"A page-turner with oomph.... Crichton's writing is cinematic, with powerful visual images and nonstop action." --Newsweek

Great SciFi Suspense
This is one of Crichton's better thrillers. It has the signature combination of Science and Action his writing is known for - without the overly technical components of the story that this author frequently allows to overwhelm his narrative. The plot follows a team of scientists rushed to the South Pacific to investigate an anomalous object found on the sea floor by a crew laying trans-Pacific cable. Using this plot device, Crichton weaves a surprisingly involved tale looking.. ultimately.. at personality conflicts - human and otherwise. It shifts from a typical science fiction story with action elements into a psychological battle of wits and a metaphysical exploration that is fascinating. The setting is unique (2000 ft under the surface), the descriptions are vivid, and the twists and turns are engrossing. The most noticeable flaw in the writing is how unlikable the characters are. First, these robotically flawed characters make for unrealistic dialogue (I found myself wondering at times if Crichton's characters - purportedly world-class scientists - were even rational.. healthy human beings don't behave that way). Second, populating the scenario with a bunch of self-serving jerks and egomaniacs diminishes somewhat the tension Crichton is so obviously striving for - I found myself not caring what happens to them.
Scott Brick turns in a great performance in this one. Anyone who has listened to Brick before knows he can come across as smarmy with his almost arrogant drawl. In this case, his tone fits the characters perfectly - an excellent choice.
I never saw the film treatment of this story, but need to check it out. This is an excellent presentation of a Four-Star story. I wonder what a good Screenplay and Director could do with it..

Fantastic!
I loved every bit of this book! Not a huge sci-fi fan but this kept me captivated. I truly couldn’t put it down at all. Loved it so much! Would highly recommend to anyone in search of a good paranormal/ sci-fi book. The writing style is well done and intellectual as well. Hard to get into a good story when the writing is mediocre. But this- hands down one of my favourite books this year 🤗
