Interpretation Conducive To Books Hook
I gave this a three star rating simply because Brooks kept very close to the movie. This is a good thing of course, but I think he may have done so to a fault. Sure, he added a bit more of the internal emotions and motivations of the character, but there isn't much to say other than that. It followed the movie so exactly, that if someone asked me if they should read the book, I'd recommend they just go watch the movie instead. Perhaps this is because I saw the movie millions of times as a child and could picture every scene perfectly in my head, but I'm really not sure.Honestly, I love Terry Brooks, but I think he could have done a lot more with this book. I'm sure it's difficult writing a novelization of a movie, but it feels like he just played it way too safe here.

Hook by Terry Brooks is a novel set in the Neverland world. The book is a novelization of the movie of the same title written by Jim V. Hart and Nick Castle and as such follows a movies pacing style. The story begins in the San Francisco area where Peter Banning is grown up so much that he has forgotten all the joys of childhood and only lives to try survive and prosper. However Peter Banning is in truth Peter Pan even though he has forgotten his childhood and he magic that he lived in and hasFound this book at a local thrift store. If you've seen the movie, it's literally word for word. I did notice the book answers questions the movie left out. Finished in about an hour.

Hook is probably my all-time favourite film, and I'm always gonna love this story. But I cannot deny that I prefer the movie. Maybe it's because I saw the movie first, years and years ago. Maybe it's because I only own this book in Dutch because it was bought for me when I was a kid, and I don't like the translation much. But I think it's because the book is mostly descriptive, and lacks the dept of thoughts and emotions. Maybe that's a very grown-up criticism to have, because I'm quite sure
This is one of the best novelizations I have read/own. And its a good size for a novelization as well, dropping in at 273 pages. I also think its one of the few hardback novelisations that I own.Terry Brooks did an amazing job of translating the screenplay into a well rounded novelization. Each scene feels more than what was in the actual film. Almost fuller and more rounded out. Theres so much more background detail, things that I found myself noticing during the re-watch of the film
I was sadly reading this book when I found out Robin Williams was no longer with us. I'm a big fan of the movie and have seen it dozens of times, to the point where I know most of the lines. When I seen the book at Goodwill and seen it was written by Terry Brooks I was intrigued. I own and hadn't yet started his Shannara series (reading it now)so I thought well this will let me know if I like his style of writing, and I do. The Book came second and is therefore exactly like the movie which is
It was OK, but I liked the movie better. The book followed the movie very closely, just gave some more explanation as to charater motive.
