ROBIN COOK - MD

dexa

ada sesiapa yang minat medical thriller ka?
saya dah baca semua novel robin cook -
and hopefully new one is coming soon too in
paper back - keluar in HC already
(crisis -- tengah tunggu yang ni)

he is one of a brilliant authors -- a doctor/physician
used to practice in boston (masa mula2 saya baca
buku dia --  now rasanya he lives in florida )
author of medical thriller  or medical genre -

saya baca novel robin cook - gosh tak ingat bila
start  i think when i was in early teenagers dulu -
first book yang saya baca  'COMA' ( itu first novel
dia actually) - about black market organ -
saya betul2 awed dengan cara penulisan
dan plot yang dia tulis - the mysterious way and
stuff like that --- buku ni dijadikan movie --
and directed by none other than michael crichton -
(the infamous jurassic park author -another great
author himself) - interesting to note
that - both of them are physician -- and most of their
books are about similar genre (science - medic)

other books by robin cook yang saya dah baca --
i will write the one i can remember --
- coma
- sphinx
- seizure
- toxin
- chromosome 6
- invasion
- vector-
- harmful intent
- brain
- fever
- godplayer (ini ada movie)
- sphere( movie starred  dustin hoffman / renee russo)
- terminal
- vital signs
- brain
- contagion
- acceptable risk ( i suka juga buku yang ni)
- outbreak
- shock
- marker (latest book yang i baca last year)

there are more  tak ingat -- tu yang saya ingat --
ohhh yeah  mindbend -- okay juga yang ni...

anyway -- lots!! and all his books walaupun menceritakan
tentang doctor / diseases -- but the plot interesting - sometimes
the twist yang dia buat at the end of the story  very remarkable --

pada sesiapa yang minat  medical thriller  genre novels --
robin cook is the guy

happy reading --

Citer "Outbreak" (Renee Russo & Dustin Hoffman) tu based on his book ye?

I read a couple of his books, i cannot remember which, tapi i notice his books ni pun agak stereotype.

Still prefer Crichton over Cook.

yang aku perasan, sedara-mara, sepupu sepapat yang jadi doktor biasanya akan minat penulisan robin cook ni, sebab medical terms and medical investigation dia bagus.. i just read one, tapi for non doctor reader, susah nak paham buku robin cook ni
