Product Description
Product Description
The action-packed adventure continues as simmering tensions explode with a vengeance.
X-MEN 2
They live among us, each possessing special superhuman abilities—sometimes a blessing, sometimes a curse. Mutants. Since the discovery of their existence, they have been regarded with fear, suspicion, and often hatred. Across the planet, the debate rages: Are mutants the next link in the evolutionary chain or simply a new species of humanity, fighting for their share of the world?
Either way, one fact remains: Sharing the world has never been humanity’s defining trait.
There are two sects of mutants: One aims to coexist peacefully with a world that despises them; the other group strikes at intolerance with a relentless, often murderous force. But now there is a new insidious enemy, and no one will be safe. . . .

I've read a lot of movie and TV tie-ins in my time, and this is a good one! With the world of the X-Men being so large after all these years, it's obviously hard to get all the history and development of the characters into the movie itself.
But this novel adds all the character development that the movie was unable to due to time constraints, and for die-hard X-fans, has some lovely little knowing nods to the great Marvel canon. So for all those who wanted a little more on Nightcrawler, Mystique, Jason and the rest - read this.

Normally, I'm not a big fan of novelisations. I tend to steer clear of them because they suffer from lack of substance. But this one's a little different. For a start, it's always interesting to read the extra little bits that were in the original screenplay, but dropped from the movie during production. But mostly *gasp..shock horror* this novel actually fleshes out the plot, the characters, and the action. This is a book written by someone who has absorbed the whole X-Men universe and is not afraid to use it. If you're an X-fan, you'll love the knowing little nods to other events/characters in the Marvel universe - and even if you're not, it's still well written and well worth the effort.

I ordered this and it arrived the day the movie was out so i read it when i got back and its brilliant. It adds more depth to the movie as it focuses on some characters a little more and explains things in greater detail which i found very good.
It will spoil it if you havnt seen the film so i would advise you to read it afterwards. Also the ending is VERY different to the film but overall this is a must buy for X-men fans casual or die-hard. The writing is of a very high quality.

Its not the same
For those of you who may have read the Marvel graphic Novel, "God loves, Man kills" this may seem a little familiar. For those of you who saw the movie first then read the book. Read more
