You Never Know What Is The Truth....???

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 5, 2014

A very fast read and such a complete story. Of course Bernard Ross is really Ken Follett and with this book I would say is the beginning of his great writing style. A little bit of 'way the dog' type of plot as to what is real or not. This story grabbed my interest from the start and I found it hard to put down because I really never could figure out what was going to happen next to the end. If you like Ken Follett or the space program or a book to just make you wonder this is a good read.

So short of details...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 7, 2015

A good premise of a story, let down by a rather alarming lack of detail...

I remember reading this when I was a kid, thinking it was way cool, but rereading it this week confirmed that there could have been a better story and a better ending in it, then simply **spoiler** jumping on the plane, making some smoke, watching the helicopters crash (didn't they know which is left and right?... and of course, turning up with a smile to his own funeral... there is an incredible lack of detail, and I felt that the author could have done so much more...

Of course, it is still a good story, but not something to go nuts about. One of the few instances where the movie was better than the book.

Fact

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 15, 2006

FYI, Ken Follett, the famous author, wrote the novelization of this movie under a pen name.

Fleshes out the film

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 8, 2019

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed watching the Capricorn One film when it first came out and now have the DVD and Blu Ray versions, both of which are excellent.
I received the book today from Better World Books and have read it all the way through once and will want to read it many more times.
The author gives more depth to the characters than was available in the film-this is not meant as a criticism of the film-there is only so much that can be packed into a 2 hour movie.
The ‘fleshing out’ of the Caulfield and Kelloway characters gave much greater depth to the storyline and made for a most enjoyable read.
The book was a second hand copy but in very good condition and I recommend the seller, Better World Books, for their promptness of delivery and nice packaging.
Thank you.

OK second time round

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on November 19, 2013

Verified Purchase

Online it was described as 'Acceptable, what I received was a sorry excuse for a paperback with the first fourteen pages missing!
The response from Customer Services was good and a replacement was sent 'immediately'. After chasing I did eventually receive an 'acceptable' copy. Overall OK, shame they don't do a basic check before despatch.
