I've only ever read Crichton's Jurassic Park, and never really considered reading his other works until recently when I came across this in a used book store and bought it on a whim. I'm glad I did! I thought Congo was captivating throughout and was never slow through the entire read. He included details and historical facts in such a way as to interweave his story to real-life, which makes it that much more believable. I only ever give books 5 stars when I feel like it's truly deserving, and this is one of those instances, in my opinion. Highly reccomended.
