This was great !!!!!!!!!!!, Jun 8 2006
By Bookboy "Alex" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Final Destination 1: Dead Reckoning (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was fast paced and aweasome.The deaths wern't the best but the characters r aweasome. The jerk off Eric reminded me of the guy Carter in the first movie.But I do have to say the club seen when it collapsed was the best.If u like fd then u should give this book a read.

You need to read this book!, Mar 10 2006
By Lil' Punk Boy - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Final Destination 1: Dead Reckoning (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was awesome! I couldn't put it down it is so much better than the movies! The deaths are way more creative than the movie, they didn't need gore to make it freaky. When some people die they don't really tell what happens take an example from a character who begins with a B.
Now everyone else gives Eric a bad rap but he isn't that horrible he just extremely stubborn. You'll like the ending, it is somewhat like FD2. I will read all of them and I also suggest the movie "Final Destination 3" it is awesome, bloody but awesome. I am so looking foward to the the new book coming out this summer.

Don't Let this be your 'Final' Final Destination, Oct 1 2005
By John M. Panno - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Final Destination 1: Dead Reckoning (Mass Market Paperback)
First things first, I only purchased this book (got it on Amazon
as you can't find it in the stores) due to my love of the 2 Movies, along with the intriguing concept. Didn't expect much.
Was pleasantly surprised as the book has fresh believable characters. The vision and catastrophe this time around is during a rock concert in a small venue (Movie 1 was a Plane Crash; Movie 2 was a massive highway disaster). Vividly & horrifically described.
While the movie-premise was the book basis there was intrigue and real suspense due to the authors misdirection and sudden scene shifting. The writing is cinematic with clear visuals and clever. Characterization was good but could have been taken farther. Another divergence from 'movie-tie-in' books is that it was 400 pages vs the obligatory 250. Give it a shot.
On the note so great side is that the editor must've been on vacation. One whole chapter the main character 'Jess' became 'Tess' - huh? And there were many typos, "She reached up to scratch her noise (nose).
Am currently reading the second book, to which there's filaments from this book, so read them in order.
Two notes on book 2 (Destination Zero)
A. At the end of this book there's a 20 page preview / except of book 2, nothing unusual about that. HOWever those 20 pages do not appear in book 2, so it's a bonus - although not heralded that way (Editor still sleeping?)
B. Book 2 diverges somewhat from the movie & first book plotline and adds to the mystique. More on that in another review.
End Note: A third movie comes out in January. Movie adaptations are also due out then, along with Book 5 of 'this' series.
