Publisher's Synopsis

KING KONG is one of the most famous films of all time, and the original novelisation by Delos W. Lovelace, based on Edgar Wallace and Merion C. Cooper's idea, is an enduring classic of fantasy fiction. KING KONG: taller than a 5-storey building, able to crush an aeroplane with his bare hand, ruler of a lost empire of prehistoric monsters. KING KONG: the giant killer ape who fell in love with a blonde waif and made her the prisoner of his strange passion . . . KING KONG: the world-famous story of the beauty and the beast that has thrilled and amazed countless millions in dozens of languages . . . From the seething jungles of Skull Island, a land which time and civilisation have forgotten, to the skyscrapers of teeming New York City, KING KONG inspires terror and awe as his colossal saga of innocence, passion and towering rage unfold a tragic love story of gargantuan proportions. KING KONG: The Eighth Wonder of the World: a story you will never forget!
