5.0 out of 5 stars Worth shooting a webline at!, 30 April 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: "Spider-Man": A Novelization (Spiderman Novelisation) (Paperback)
As a fan since the sixties I knew that essentially I would be reading a 40-year-old story of Spider-man's origins retold for today's world and I cannot fault it for that. Okay, some liberty has been taken; his web-shooters are now biological and not mechanical! but after the last god-awful attempts at bringing Spidey to the big screen I am willing to accept a little poetic licence.

The book is extremely well written with a great deal of thought given to characterisation, I found myself being thoroughly entertained in a story paced with humour and little in-jokes that make it a delightful read that you will definitely not be able to put down. Peter David has done his homework and as I read the book I was pleased with the small glimpses of Spider-man history that gave it a little nostalgia. [True believers will not overlook Jonah's confession as seen in ASM#10] NUFF SAID.

As we already know the SM story I cannot think of a single reason why you should not read this novel before seeing the movie. You will get an insight into the thoughts of each scene where constraints on time limit what can realistically be done. This book is a great read that would leave you wanting more and I hope Peter David will continue to write SM stories like this for us to enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars leaves you hungry for more..., 13 Aug 2002
This review is from: "Spider-Man": A Novelization (Spiderman Novelisation) (Paperback)
this book is a brilliant adaptation of the film. It really involves the reader, shedding light on some of the film's murkier moments, and then makes you want to see the film again.
Peter David leaves us hungry for more, desperate to find out what happens in the relationship between Peter and MJ.
the only problem i found with this book, is that, no matter how hard i tried to make it last, the pages seemed to fly by!

4.0 out of 5 stars A great read for spidey fans, 4 Jun 2003
This review is from: Spider-Man (School & Library Binding)
If you've seen the film - you'll find plenty of surprises in this 'novelisation' of the screenplay - A glimpse into Peter's childhood when he first meets Aunt May, more teenage angst, Peter's diary giving a running commentary - much more fun! I heartily recommend this to all Spider-Man fans.
