The Eisenstein Prophecy is VERY good... it has an underlying Indiana Jones type of feel. I highly recommend it.

Talk about a tense book. I finished it today and I'm going to watch the movie tonight to see if it holds up. Action packed until the very end. The ending was kind of weak but it was a very warming moment. If you haven't read it, I definitely recommend it!!!

I started this book a few days ago and am currently a little past half way through it. The first thing that I have to say is how well the author pulls you into the story. I've always say that when a book brings out an emotion, good or bad, he is doing something right. I feel as if my mind is...

Mostly it was his use of single word sentences. He would write a sentence and use a one word sentence and then another one word sentence to emphasize the first. Plus he seemed to be a big fan of semicolons. It seemed that he only did this in the first part of the book where he was setting up the...

Welcome, I'm new as well. This site seems to be a wealth of knowledge but be patient because everyone is out reading lol ;)

Well another day has passed and I'm just a little bit past halfway through. I'll admit that Blatty's writing style slowed me down. It seems that some of the references were from the seventies and I just didn't understand due to lack of context. Now that I'm in the meat of the story, things have...

I just started reading it today and got pretty far. The sentence structure is a bit odd, but I expected oddities with a 70's book. So far so good, I'm getting through the basic character backgrounds and foundation for the story. It's taking me a while because Blatty's writing style is kind of...

They were all great movies. I've never even thought about The Green Mile. I'm not a huge Stephen King fan, but I do enjoy a few of his books and especially his short stories. I've both read and saw each movie. I did miss that they left Tom Bombidile out of it but Peter Jackson did a pretty good...

Hi all! My name is garyinhere ;) I've always enjoyed reading and am currently reading The Exorcist. I've been on a mission lately and have been trying to only read books that have been converted into movies. I've been stuck on tween books/movies though and am currently been trying to expand my...

I hate reviving old threads... I normally try to read the book before the movie and found this forum during my search. I just finished The Martian and can't wait until it comes out on video! It was an excellent book and I apologize for not being able to give a review on the movie. Currently...
