Reviews
On Nov 27 2007, Hazelwood_Booksellers said:
From the author of such modern era classics and quintessential bestsellers as: The Andromeda Strain, The Terminal Man, Congo, Sphere, Rising Sun, Jurassic Park, and The Lost World; comes yet another blockbuster novel, Airframe. A commercial airliner suffers a horrendous mid air disaster, with three dead and fifty-six injured, and the flight cabin near totally destroyed. But, the captain hangs-on to regain control and land the plane. Now the race is on for investigators to find out the how and why of it. As horrifically fresh and relevant today as when it was first published in 1996, the stark terror will keep you holding onto the book with one hand and the arm of your chair with the other. This is indeed another Crichton classic.
