I have read all of his books throughout the years, and don't remember the details in many of them, but I do remember a lot of Toxin's and my guess is that his description of how the animals are procured and slaughter has a strong basis in the truth. Downers are incorporated into our food chain not only in the beef industry but in other factory farming practices. Just do a web search in factory farming in the US and you will see how bad it is and well it is covered up. Cook did a great job in Toxin, I would not be surprised if he got hold of some undercover footage done by some infiltrator....I almost turned vegetarian...might still go that way.

Hi, just to clear it up. The book by Robin Cook called Convulsion is actually the book called Seizure. Convulsion is the spanish translation for seizure.

Joan, the book Convolsian is also called Seizure, and is an amazing book

In the on-line encyclopaedia it lists Critical, 2007 for his next book.

Hi, this is the first time that I have posted a message to this site. I hope that someone can clear something up for me! I recently ordered a Robin Cook book from Amazon titled Convulsion and when I recieved it, it was written totally in Spanish. Is anyone able to tell me whether this is one of his older books renamed and written only in Spanish? as I can't find Convulsion in English anywhere and the lady at my local library can't put any light on the subject.

I have read almost all of Robin Cook's books and I love them. I am reading Crisis now, but not done yet. I have found a few publishing errors, like when it is Jack talking they put Craig's name there. My question is, I saw somewhere that his next book is Tara Road. Has anyone else heard that?

Without any doubt, Robin Cook is the best writer in the world! I have enjoyed every book and been unable to put them down. Just finished 'Marker', about to start 'Crisis'. I particularly love the ones involving the New York OCME (Dr Stapleton, etc). How about a series of books revolving around cases at the NY OCME?
