3.0 out of 5 stars Delos is back, but the [danger] to visitors remains., August 2, 2003
By 
This review is from: Futureworld (Mass Market Paperback)
It has been a few years since a computer virus caused the robots at the adults only vacation park Delos to murder the human guests. The problem is fixed and the park has reopened, but distrust is high. Seeking to improve its PR, Delos asks two investigative reporters, Chuck Browning (Peter Fonda) and Tracy Ballard (Blythe Danner), to tour the park and report on its safety. What the company rep does not know is that Browning has had a source tell him that something sinister is happening at Delos, yet again.

This novelization of the sequel to Westworld is uneven. The story is good, the characters just okay, and the third act needed some work. But those are problems with the script by Mayo Simon and George Shcenck that John Ryder Hall adapted. The problem with the writing in the book is that stage direction is simply described instead worked into a three dimensional story frame and the parts that Hall inserts to add novel texture to the story are pretty easy to see. But fans of both Westworld and its sequel will find something to enjoy in it. Enjoy.
