Book Reviews of The Wicker Man: A Novel
Book Review: Of Mixed interest
Summary: 3 Stars
I am a great fan of the Original Wickerman and while this book offers some more details and perhaps makes Howie more human - not that I think his character needed it, It certainly could not capture the allure of Willow or the Sinister dark seductive air of Lord Summersile.
The ending could never have the impact on paper that it does have on film as it it the shock of the sight of the Acutal Wickerman from Howies point of view that is starkly horifying..
Howie at the very end of the book did something I do not not remember noticing in the movie and I need to check it out to see if I missed something. About the birds being liberated to God---It seemed to be more of a victory for howie then the stunning emptiness that the movie seemed to present. Al least I have a reason to the the movie again---I never forget about it for long---
