Answer:
Michael Crichton's 1969 book The Andromeda Strain (Vintage) centers on a group of scientists enduring an epidemic caused by an unknown extraterrestrial microorganism. After a military space probe sent to collect organisms from the upper atmosphere crashes onto Earth, a deadly phenomenon terrorizes the residents of an Arizona town, leaving only two survivors: an elderly addict and a newborn infant. The U.S. government is then forced to mobilize Project Wildfire, a top-secret emergency response protocol. Scientists race to try to comprehend and contain the unexpected crisis. Crichton's book will get the sequel treatment from writer Daniel H. Wilson — best known for his New York Times best-selling book Robopacalypse and its sequel Robogenesis — who got approval from Crichton's wife Sherri to tackle a new installment titled The Andromeda Evolution.
Stephen King has an knack for terrifying readers through his chilling stories, and this 1978 book (Doubleday) could gain renewed attention given its plotline that eerily resonates with the current pandemic. The book tells the tale of a patient who escapes from a testing facility, unknowingly carrying a mutated strain of super-flu that could wipe out 99 percent of the world's population within a few weeks. From a frightened public, two leaders emerge: Mother Abagail, a 108-year-old woman who urges them to build a peaceful community in Colorado; and "Dark Man" Randall Flagg, who finds thrill in chaos and violence. The survivors are then left not only to have to choose between Mother Abagail and Randall Flagg but decide the fate of all humanity. The book will be getting the series treatment, as it was announced in early 2019 that King's post-apocalyptic best-seller earned a straight-to series, 10-episode order from CBS All Access.
Just with its title alone, Albert Camus' 1947 classic The Plague (La Peste) can easily resonate with the current climate. His book, known as a classic in literature, tells the story of a plague sweeping the French Algerian city of Oran. Once it has settled in, the epidemic continues to linger in the minds of the town’s inhabitants until the following February. The book has proven to become revived as sales of the book in France have risen approximately "300 percent on the previous year," according to the French books statistics website Edistat. It has also prompted various articles questioning "What We Can Learn (and Should Unlearn) From Albert Camus' The Plague" amid the coronavirus.
