Michael Crichton is (was - while I still enjoy his books he has passed away) one of my favorite authors. Congo is the third book of his that I have enjoyed and I am sure I will return to his books in the future. It is a story of a group of people who are going into the congo to a lost city to find diamonds and have to fight off all sorts of danger. One of the most difficult being a new species of gorilla that was bred in ancient time to guard the diamonds. There is also a volcano that erupts not to mention attacking hippos. The book is Michael Crighton's usual action packed adventure with the added delight of a gorilla that was raised in captivity and trained to communicate with sign language. As has been many of Michael Crighton's books this one was made into a movie. Click on the author's name and the book title above to follow the links to more information and enjoy the movie trailer in the video that follows. I not only recommend this book but the two other Michael Crichton books I have read - Next and State Of Fear.
