RELEASE NOTES:

To be taken to the Durham meet this afternoon.

Caught at the Durham meet at the end of June. It took me a while to journal the catch, but hopefully I will be faster at reading it...

Very good plot-line, which kept my attention despite the rather poor characterisation. Could have been an outstanding book if it had been written by Michael Crichton (who directed the film of the book), who has a much better understanding and ability to convey ideas about human nature than Robin Cook. Also, the book is full of clearly very dated attitudes to accompany the dated ideas about technology (written in the 1970s).

RELEASE NOTES:

The Old Light is one of the lighthouses on Lundy, no longer used as a lighthouse, but open to anyone to wander in and explore. This book was released in the old living quaters about half-way up the lighthouse tower, at the end of a very relaxing few days on the island...
