Kurzbeschreibung
A fantastic futuristic thriller of a deadly new frontier.
A rogue comet spears an earth-bound commercial spacecraft, forcing it to plummet to the surface of an unknown planet. With the captain dead, a brave pilot performs a perilous crash landing. Other than three suns-which create perpetual light-and a slight oxygen deficiency, a search party discovers that the planet isn't much different from Earth...until they stumble across a ghostly settlement littered with the human remains of geologists who mysteriously perished exactly sixty years ago. And the most horrific discovery of all: below the surface of the soil, where darkness reigns, live hungry predators with a deadly appetite.
Once every sixty years a solar eclipse darkens the skies and allows the blood-hungry creatures to escape from their underground tomb. With only hours before total blackout, everyone must unite in a race to raise the geologists' abandoned ship before becoming a long-awaited meal...

Format:Taschenbuch
My error, I should have zoomed in on the picture of the book and seen that it was based upon the screenplay. If you want to know the premises behind the movie, by all means read it. If you thought this was the novel upon which the movie was based...forget it.

Format:Taschenbuch
While well-written and interesting to read I found the book itself mostly disappointing when compared to the movie. Obviously the author had based his book on an earlier version of the movie script and before the casting of the actors was done, and not on the finished movie itself as many things were changed and differed from the movie.
Normally in books based on movies one can find more information about the characters and their relationships with each other and in general more depth as things that can't be adressed within the limited time-frame of a movie can be picked up in a book. Not in this book which is mainly based on the action but not really on the interaction between the characters.
If you loved the movie, don't bother with the book. Riddick isn't really Riddick.
The price is also pretty steep for such a thin book.
Format:Taschenbuch
I must admit that this book has taken me aback. I was hoping for more reading but the book is very thin (the size, plus big alphabets)... The story line is really similar to the movie although in the book, there are a few twists. I also get more insights into the characters, especially Riddick...Sadly, after reading this book, I don't find Riddick that...intriguing or mysterious anymore...it's a tad bit disappointing. However, this is a well-written book, I truly enjoyed reading it... But if it boils down to watch the movie or read the book, do please save the money to watch the movie... thanks...=)

Pitch Black was outstanding
If you haven't seen the movie yet, then read the book! The graphic details in which are given to you, do give a sur-realistic viewpoint of both the people-as well as the planet. Lesen Sie weiter...

ANOTHER WINNER FROM THE AUTHOR OF DARK CITY AND END OF DAYS
if Pitch Black the movie is half as good as the novel it will be a sensational box office smash. Frank Lauria ( Mask of Zorro, End of Days, Dark City) has written an extraordinary... Lesen Sie weiter...
