1.0 out of 5 stars How not to write a novelization, 3 Jun 2008
By M. Evans - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (Paperback)
Okay, I thought the movie itself was very good, not quite in the same class as the previous ones, but a very enjoyable film all round. Seeing this novelization was by James Rollins, an author I like very much, I was expecting an great book, full of insights into the characters and extra background detail fleshing out the story and giving it added depth. Instead, what Rollins has delivered is a very basic, bog-standard adaptation of the script with virtually nothing extra added to it. It's basically just like reading a script with 'he said, she said' and some basic descriptions. It's a very turgid, uninspiring read that feels totaly flat and pointless.You'll learn nothing new reading this if you've seen the movie. Check out the novelization of Temple of Doom by James Khan - that's how a novelization should be written. Avoid this and just watch the film instead.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cameras, Lights, Action!, 9 May 2009
This review is from: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (Paperback)
This books follows the script of the movie closely so if you have seen the latter the plot will be known to you. Nevertheless the book does draw you into its whirlwind of action and danger and archaeological mysticism. Peru becomes the backdrop for the plot with all of that country's legends and association with higher cultures, etc, etc. The pace of the book is pell-mell and it never lets up. The writing style employs actions verbs in punchy sentences. Indiana Jones races with the Russians, who are out to capture, use and kill him, to find the crystal skulls and their meaning. The Griffon Trilogy: Pt. I
