I must say I am really surprised that the book from the movie is actually very good. The cheesiness of the earlier movies is gone. Descriptions take the place of bad or now probably very good special effects. The book does do justice to the King of the Monsters.

This novelization was a good recap of the movie and clarified several plot points that either I missed or were glossed over in the film. I don’t know if the Godzilla movie that’s due to be released later this year will pick up where this one left off (from the hook at the end, I’m guessing yes) but I wanted to be up to speed on the storyline and characters in case it did. This book got me there and was an entertaining read as well. ( )
