Eruption for Travelers

The most anticipated mega bestseller in years is the result of a collaboration between the master of the techno-blockbuster, Michael Crichton, and the master of the modern thriller, James Patterson. Crichton, the creator of Jurassic Park, ER, Twister, and Westworld, had a passion project he had been pursuing for years, but due to his untimely passing in 2008, his wife, Sherri Crichton, held back his notes and the partial manuscript until she found the right author to complete it – James Patterson, the world's most popular storyteller.

The book, titled "Eruption," is a classic summer beach read that promises to revive the art of speed-reading. It is an epic thriller that is fast-paced and deeply considered, with a cinematic story rooted in science and infused with plenty of heart, tackling big themes like love and loss. The story centers around a history-making eruption that is about to destroy the Big Island of Hawaii, but the real terror lies in a secret held for decades by the US military, which is far more terrifying than any volcano.

The book has been receiving rave reviews, with USA Today calling it "a compelling amalgam of the two writers," and Kirkus giving it a starred review, describing the "red-hot storytelling" and the action scenes that will make readers' eyes pop as the tension continues to build. The Washington Post has called it "the summer's ultimate literary mashup," while the BBC has praised it for taking readers on a "thrilling journey."

The book is being hailed as a "seismic publishing event," with the Associated Press describing it as having "all the elements of a summer blockbuster" and the pages "practically turning themselves." The Los Angeles Times has called it "this summer's literary version of a blockbuster action movie," while Publishers Weekly has praised its "breakneck and plausible" storytelling.

Overall, "Eruption" promises to be a thrilling and compelling read that will captivate readers with its blend of science, suspense, and heart. It is a must-read for fans of Crichton, Patterson, and anyone who loves a good summer blockbuster.
