Actually goes in the same order of how I rate them.Īs with the other books, I do find this quite a slow read - it's packed full of description and obviously the characters get more of a chance to spread their wings. I actually read the Terminator novelizations in a strange way, mainly because I didn't get the two copies of the first book until after I had read 2 and 3. That edition felt very bland, considering they were both taken from the same screenplay, I find it hard to believe that they are so different! The guy at the start in the truck, the "punks" at the beginning who the Terminator takes the clothes from, even down to Sarah's fellow waitresses and boss get a back story and more time on the page, than they did on the screen.Īlso the writng style is far better than the Shaun Hutson version. Every single character in this book, whether they were a big part of the film or not, get a back story. This copy of the book is definitely the superior version, in every which way. However, I was eager to compare to this one, especially after re-watching the first film again. It was just average, and I didn't feel the need to review it. The Terminator by Shaun Hutson, I have read, but I really wasn't too fussed about it. It really is an eye opener when you get two novelisations, about the same film that are COMPLETELY different.
