amazing story

The story was good but I found it jumped quite a bit and could have done with a bit more content and emotion It runs along the same sort of lines as rolllerball did back in the day. That set aside I would definitely recommend listening if you like any kind of sci fi.

A good listen

Good story, haven't seen the film yet but hoping it hasn't changed a great deal like ready player one.
Unfortunately the narrator voice s little annoying not being prejudice but had a problem emphasising his ssssssss 's

Too short...

Not a bad story. I've not seen the movie but I enjoyed this story based on it. It might have been better as more of an audio drama than as a straight read through but otherwise Ok

Pretty good

You are in for a treat!
Start with the prequel and continue with this book which is glorious and magnificently narrated by Brian Nishii who adds so much and more to this story…

Superbly Written and Narrated

versione romanzata che fa il suo lavora senza infamia ma con alcuni guizzi, per chi sperasse di avere mole di informazioni sul mondo e rivelazioni, non ce ne sranno ma alcuni passaggi risultano più naturali e meno affrettati rispetto a quello visto sul grande schermo, in particolare per quello che concerne il personaggio di Hugo

ottimo complemento alla visione del film

Good story, which adds a lot of detail past that in the film but unfortunately the narrator's pronunciation of names is often atrocious. He seems to have done no research into how to say non-american names.

Good story, shame about the narrator

The movie and novelisation (book 0 and book 1) are based on manga. Picture a post-apocalyptic, post-war, corrupt world and then immerse yourself in what characters have to do to make ends meet. The struggle between what is right and survival is tangible. The narrator matches the setting of this world most perfectly and the backstory gives more depth to the movie, which I loved and am planning to watch again now. Enjoy!

Brilliant adaptation of movie and manga

when seeing the film for the first time I was really drawn to the characters but the book gives extra layers of thought, dialogue and depth that are easily missed when watching the film. I still feel the story could be extended and more experiences could be seen of Alita's curiosity when first awakening and her relationships with other main characters like Hugo. overall still a good read and the narration is done very well that I could close my eyes and be immersed in the world described in the book.

Film is good book is better
