In the beginning
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Have you seen King Kong at the cinemas or on DVD and wanted certain questions answered; Primarily how Carl Denham obtained the map that showed skull island and about the man that grabbed the map. Well if you want answers to these questions then this is the book for you. It gives living accounts of characters that appear in the movie of where they were before they all met. Even Kong makes a special appearance; however he is not the main focus of the story. This is not a story that revolves around Kong. This is most probably the reason why many people would stop reading; however many might want answers to the questions that I did and not be able to put it down.
A Roaring Good Prequel!

I found this book to be a very entertaining read! Most movie tie-in books are lame in my opinion. This book has all of the familiar characters from the movie and describes their actions leading up to where the movie begins. A good plot, plenty of action, a visit to Skull Island, and just a hint of Kong himself make this an enjoyable prequel to the movie! Kong Lives!
Ge ready to devour this!

For a Kong Kong fan, this book, a fast-paced story, is filled with surprises but also deals with a lot of what you'd want to know. What did Ann Darrow do before she joining Denham's expedition? Or what was Carl Denham doing in the Arctic before he began his search for Skull Island? Or how did Jack Driscoll's literary life in the Manhattan of the 30s hook him up with Denham? And the whole thing is so amazingly atmospheric, like a lost Kong book from 70 years ago.. But then it addresses the two big questions-where did the map to Skull come from...and, more importantly, what is happening on Skull Island to begin with? I doubt the film will touch on either of those two cool mysteries. But Costelo's book does and so well as we join a deep diving ship on a journey to a Skull Island that I bet Merriam C. Cooper never dreamed of. Highly recommended and bound to be devoured in one day.
An amazing read!

Did not know what to expect from this novel, a prequel. But it turned out to be a totally compelling curtain raiser for what I think will be PJ's new masterpiece. Filled with secrets and stunning scenes, the book moved like a bullet. Now for the film itself!
This book surprised me. Don't judge too quickly!

I AM NOT A KID. In truth, this book gets off to what seems to be a crawlimg start. Once you read a while, though, you'll be glad you did! The early chapters are boring from just about anybody's perspective, but that only makes the later chapters a lot better. Once you reach the point where the author writes from the native girl's perspective, it's a hard book to put down.TRY TO BE A LITTLE PATIENT IN THE BEGINNING!!
