Thankyou, sqdancer, this was a wonderful surprise! Two wishlist books, including this one, which I've wanted to read for ages! My favourite movie, Field of Dreams, is based on this book!
This book was absolutely wonderful! I can't thank sqdancer enough for sending it to me.
There were a lot of things in the book that were different from the movie (or, since the book came first, I guess it is the other way around!), but none of them had much affect on the story. Generally, things happened the same way and were just more detailed in the book. Also, the book contained interesting parts that weren't very relevent to the story but were nice things to read about that I imagine were left out of "Field of Dreams" because of time constraints or the like.
I found this book quite enthralling; the kind of book in which you find yourself getting a little sad as you get closer to the ending, because you just want it to keep going...
I am passing the book to scared4 next, because I know it's on his wishlist, and it's so good that I just have to share it with the man with whom I share so much! :D
EDIT: 26 September, 2005-- given to scared4 while he was home visiting this weekend.
