5.0 out of 5 stars Combattimento Mortale, August 10, 2007
This review is from: Mortal Kombat: A Novel (Paperback)
Based upon the popular film Mortal Kombat, 'Mortal Kombat: A Novel' is beginning to be recognised as a classic.

Generally the book is very faithful to the film, and what it lacks in the movie's luscious visual textures it makes up for with Martin Delrio's lyricism. In one episode of the book, Sub Zero is looking at Scorpion whose leg he has just frozen "in a legwarmer of diamond butterflies", while Scorpion "evacuates from the pigpen dungeon of his dirty guts a powerful authoritarian bellow." Another scene Johnny Cage uppercuts Reptile and the action momentarily suspends in this delicate lull; a wind "enchanted with a fine herbed pungency from whisking through a sage patch" passes by Johnny Cage, and Reptile is "reeking and barfing green poisonous syrup." Such potency.

This book is timeless... immortal kombat.
