Summary: Flat characters, bad science, weak, unbelievable plot
Review: Sphere is the same as all of Crichton's books. A group of people go into a novel environment (lost jungle city/dinosaur inhabited island/spaceship under water) get chased by monsters, everything blows up, solving the problem. The science in Sphere is highly suspect, the characters are flat, the plot is unbelievable. After years of students telling me how great the book was and not being able to read it, I finally forced myself to get beyond the first couple of chapters. The story didn't get any better. I still didn't care about the characters. The plot was almost page-by-page predictable. Forget this book.

Summary: Sphere
Review: Sphere is the most amazing book I have ever read. It goes from a Sci Fi novel, to a mystery who done it type in away. I am not going to spoil the ending to just keep your Imagination open and expect the unexpected!!!!

Summary: Awesome!
Review: Okay, so I haven't read very many books before but this one was just one of the most awesome books. I didn't think it was the best since the reading was reletively easy though the plot kicked. Buy this book, trust me, you'll love it! Definite page turner.

Summary: Good Till The End
Review: The Book Was Great Until The End. It was a page turner, even at the end. I gave it a 9 because of the ending, but still good.

Summary: Very Nice
Review: Its been a long time since I read this, but I thought it was pretty neat, except for one thing. How could someone go inside a sphere with a couple billion Christmas tree lights inside, and come out a virtual god. What's going on!

Summary: Glance at characters and storyline
Review: Sphere is easily one of the best and most intense novels I have ever read. The characters are indeed dynamic. The storyline doesn't let you go until the very end. I finished the entire book in ten hours! The story starts with a middle-aged psychiatrist and takes the reader deep into the world in the ocean. A strange space ship is found underwater. You know what the strange thing is? READ IT! YOU'LL FIGURE IT OUT! I guarantee you, if you pick up this book, you won't put it away until you find out exactly what happens. Clearly, Crichton has put a lot of time, effort and research into writing this novel. It's better than any classic.

Summary: Really good book....will make even better movie!!!
Review: While this was a really good book, I think it will make an even better movie. There are very few movies that are better than the books, but I think this will be an exception. The ending is astounding, and I can just see Samuel L.Jackson as Harry, and Sharon Stone as Beth, and Dustin Hoffman as Norman. Even Caroline Goodall and Rip Torn (Barnes of course.) Anyone agree..or have any suggestions for the movie?

Summary: crichton's best ever
Review: Crichton uses the sphere to perfectly describe each of the characters. The idea of the book will have you asking many questions of yourself, wondering if you may have the same "powers" as those people involved with the sphere. A great read, for all readers alike. -s.e.
