The book delves in to the emotions of the characters so much more than the movie. I read the book first and loved it. The movie didn't hold my interest and so much of the story was lost in the translation. This is a fantabulous piece of fiction.

I have only seen parts of the movie, which is why i wanted to read this book. Joan Vinge is an excellent writer and, in my opinion, adds to this beautiful tale of forbidden romance. I can't say whether you'll enjoy it as much as the movie because i don't know, but it really gives one a sense of the emotions drive the characters. The epilog is an amusing and quaint surprise as well.

It's the adaptation of the screenplay for the movie of the same name. It was a rather cut and dried exposition. It just described what went on in the movie without adding much more depth to it. It was probably done from a different version of the script, because there were minor differences from the movie. All in all I was rather disappointed with it.
