Description

Quentin Tarantino’s long-awaited first work of fiction—at once hilarious, delicious and brutal—is the always surprising, sometimes shocking, novelization of his Academy Award winning film.

RICK DALTON—Once he had his own TV series, but now Rick’s a washed-up villain-of-the week drowning his sorrows in whiskey sours. Will a phone call from Rome save his fate or seal it?

CLIFF BOOTH—Rick’s stunt double, and the most infamous man on any movie set because he’s the only one there who might have got away with murder. . . .

SHARON TATE—She left Texas to chase a movie-star dream, and found it. Sharon’s salad days are now spent on Cielo Drive, high in the Hollywood Hills.

CHARLES MANSON—The ex-con’s got a bunch of zonked-out hippies thinking he’s their spiritual leader, but he’d trade it all to be a rock ‘n’ roll star.

    In my opinion the story works better in novel form. Better character development, more plot, and fun to read. When you watch the movie you feel like stuff is missing, but this book fills some gaps in. I definitely recommend this book if you enjoy the movie.

    Really terrific! Tarantino expands on all the characters from the film in an exciting way. All the loose ends or unknowns from the movie are revealed. It feels at times like he is just showing off his film knowledge. All in all a great read and would highly recommend!

    I have seen everything that he has done and watched him in everything he has acted in. I am also a a book FANATIC since I was 4 and I started reading books. And that book reads like a movie script and a bad one. I am glad that he didn’t go that way with the movie. It has no flow it’s choppy and the jokes don’t work.
