About this book
The Andromeda Strain (1969) is the runaway extraterrestrial-microbe thriller Michael Crichton published under his own name for the first time, and the book that made him famous, distilling the documentary-style technothriller voice he'd use for the rest of his career. At 286 pages, it followed his years of pseudonymous John Lange and Jeffery Hudson novels and preceded The Venom Business.
