A cloud of nanoparticles micro-robots has escaped from the laboratory. This cloud is self-sustaining and self-reproducing. It is intelligent and learns from experience.

Drawing on up-to-the-minute scientific fact, Prey takes us into the emerging realms of nanotechnology and artificial distributed intelligence—in a story of breathtaking suspense. Prey is a novel you can't put down. Because time is running out. Biography It stands to reason that someone with as many pursuits as Michael Crichton (novelist, nonfiction writer, screenwriter, director, software engineer, M.D.) might achieve only modest success in any of them. But Crichton somehow excelled at them all. His books, suffused with his scientific research and knowledge, never failed to present imaginative, chilling scenarios that jumped from historical capers to futuristic sci-fi. He died on November 4, 2008, after a long battle against cancer. Will Staehle (Jacket Design) (illustrator).…

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. A fast-paced techno-thriller exploring artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, and emergent behavior, Prey reflects early 21st-century anxieties about self-replicating systems and runaway technological evolution. Set in the Nevada desert, the novel follows a swarm of experimental nanoparticles that escape containment, becoming adaptive, predatory, and increasingly intelligent. Crichton blends cutting-edge science with suspense, continuing his signature approach of grounding speculative fiction in plausible research. This copy is a confirmed first edition, first printing, with full number line '10 through 1' present on the copyright page. The book is in Near Fine condition: clean, bright pages with no markings observed, tight binding, and sharp, well-preserved boards. The dust jacket is Very Good, showing light edge wear, minor creasing, and some handling marks, particularly along edges and folds, but remains fully intact and presents well. Jacket is unclipped. HarperCollins, one of the major global trade publishers, issued Prey during a period when techno-thrillers and science-driven fiction were highly marketable, particularly in the wake of rapid advances in computing and biotechnology. First printings of Crichton's works remain collectible due to his wide readership and lasting cultural impact. Michael Crichton (1942-2008) was a physician, novelist, and filmmaker known for blending scientific concepts with popular fiction. His bestselling works - including The Andromeda Strain, Jurassic Park, and Timeline - helped define the modern techno-thriller genre. Crichton's background in medicine and science informed his writing, lending credibility and immediacy to his explorations of technological risk and human hubris.
