As usual the book gives more of a back ground than the film. Af...ter watching the film we were intrigued as to the whole background story, this book does that. Hoping to get the prequels soon to discover even more.

I studied this book as part of ...an Open University Children's Literature course. I was given a talking book copy so simply HAD to buy a copy. Absolutely fantastic book, shame that I hear the film bombed out , although I haven't seen it yet

The series of books which begins with Mortal Engines is like nothi...ng I have ever read before. I was hooked from the first few pages and, although not everything (or everyone) is as it seems, you are always left wanting more. Currently, I have read three books of the quartet - I am in two minds whether to read the final installment; not because I don't want to but because I don't want the adventure to end.
