Get into the action of Revelation, the book has been opened and people must choose whom they are going to serve. See if Stone lives or dies and see what the Day of Wonders is really about, you will not be dissapointed with this book. I would recommend though that you read the book before you watch the movie. I watched the movie first and as I was reading the book I kept trying to place charcter names with faces, making it confusing at times for me. Overall, the book was easy to read and worth my time. Not once did I want to find another book to read, whether it was because I wanted to see how different it was from the movie or because the book was relly speaking to me. Revelation is very suspenseful and will keep you on the edge of your seat and your mouth hanging open. After you read the

If you liked the movie, you'll love the book!

REVELATION was a great movie, so naturally I had to read the novellized version, and I'm glad I did. It really rocks, and it's hard to put down. Here everything's more fully developed, at the beginning, for example, Macalousso's followers and what they're like, that's more fully developed. I really love a good villain in a story like this, and aside from Macalousso, that cat Len Parker, man, he's a fascinating SOB. Here he's more fully developed, and we learn more about his background, especially that he's a lapsed Catholic. And that title, "Overlord" -- cool! And the character Cindy, well, here she's more soft and innocent, not cynical and sarcastic like she is in the movie. Here in the novel she even seems to be a believer! I really enjoyed it, and so will you. Bottom line: if you liked the movie, you'll like the book. Read it!
