    it's not about the movie. it takes place after night and the beginning of dawn i guess you could say. it's a real good book. you will like it. after you read it let me know what you think of it. i liked it a lot.

    Since ROTLD(The novel ) was writ by Russo under a separate publisher than the Susanna Sparrow book, it could be considered an alternate universe to the Romero one. In truth the Dawn novel is subtitled the sequel to Night.
    Make what you will of that.

    I took the plunge and bought it from this auction. Hopefully it arrives quickly.

    The Return book isn't too bad, I am however gald they didn't make a movie from that book because it would not have translated very well. i was extremely happy to see Dan O'Bannon re-do everything and only keep the title since it was Producer Tom Fox who bought the rights.

    The Return book is what got me into all this stuff!!! One of my school mates borrowed it and never gave it back again
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Is there anything at all carried over from the book? Any themes or sub-plots or set pieces or character names or anything? Heck, even The Lawnmower Man had one brief sequence that was inspired by the short story.
