Summary
His very name inspires awe, horror, and, for some of the greatest masters of contemporary science fiction, a strong affection. Find out why in this special collector's edition of the original 1932 novelization of Wallace and Cooper's movie that includes commentary by masters of science fiction Ray Bradbury, Ray Harryhausen, Orson Scott Card, Harlan Ellison, Larry Niven, Catherine Asaro, Jack Williamson, and Marc Zicree.
Originally written by Edgar Wallace and Merian C. Cooper, King Kong was novelized by Delos W. Lovelace.

Entertaining classic + interesting interviews
I enjoyed listening to this story and the interviews afterwards. It’s made me want to watch the original film again.

Love King Kong
The attempted voices are annoying. I'd recommend if included in plan/free but wouldn't pay.

Never too old
Great book. I really didn’t need the interviews at the end. If I needed to know about the making of the movie I’d watch ‘the making of…’.

classic
what can you say it's still as good as when I first saw it, my Grandad put it on TV for me when I was maybe 7-8 and I loved it better that any of the remakes.

I'd seen the movies but didn't think I needed to read the book, I'm glad I did it's excellent and I must rewatch the original movie.
