I Am Legend

 
Posted by Jane Eyre on 24 January, 2008 - 15:03

I've just finished reading this and I have to admit I'm really disappointed!

I was looking forward to a nice, decent, juicy horror novel and ended up with a book about a character with massive (and of course obvious haha) post traumatic stress, obssessed over the past and not much of a future and not many other ideas from the author

Yes I understand the whole relevance about how the "living" vampires regard him as a mythical destructive force that kills them at will but I have to say I was left wondering what the fuss was about.

And I'm sorry but could the ending be any more convenient. I could just imagine the author typing away thinking damn, I've called the book I Am Legend, having not made any link at all so far so I best wrap it up in the last chapter or so. . .

There's reading time I'll never get back!

Apparently the movie has a different ending.

I was at Borders over the weekend and one of the staff was talking about it. They eluded that main character wasn't killed at the end.
