The Andromeda Strain

This book had me in its tightening grip for dang near the whole ride. But dammit he lost me in those last 5 pages!! The Andromeda Evolution had best have some dang answers, and frankly I have this fear that Andromeda Evolution is going to be lacking in all the things I loved about Strain, mainly the science. So damn, yes I feel gypped by the impromptu ending, but damn I also loved every other page...
