    A Rumble In The Jungle
  

*by K***T on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2007*

"Congo" is the second book that I've read by Michael Crichton.  The first being "Timeline."  It's been quite a few years since I first read that book and I remember enjoying it very much.  I failed to see the movie for it and really don't care to, especially now.  When the film version of "Congo" hit the screens a few years ago, I enjoyed it thoroughly.  It reminded me of all the old jungle flicks from the golden age of cinema.  However, now having read the book, I feel somewhat cheated by its celluloid counterpart.  This book is so much more engaging that it really is a shame how the movie fails to do it justice.While the core of the story, a team is sent out to find diamonds key to technological advances and they use a young grad student and his signing gorilla as cover to sneak into Africa, is still there, the book contains elements not even mentioned in the film.  We get to know the expedition party a lot better in the book.  We also have a lot more conflicts and meetings with the locals such as Pygmies, Kigani, and General Muguru and his men.  Also, the gray gorillas are given a nice and complete treatment.  I felt like I knew them better in this book than most of the human characters in the film.The film added quite a few things.  For one, the gorilla, Amy, doesn't wander around in a boxy sign translator.  Only Peter Elliot joins the group's escapade to the Congo, not his assistant as in the movie.  The grisly death of the first team is found in the movie, but the book mentions nothing of Dr. Karen Ross having any type of relationship with one of the original team's members.  In fact, she comes across as very frigid and uninterested in finding a boyfriend in the jungle.  Tim Curry's character, while funny in the film, is non-existent here.The book moves at a very quick pace.  Even when Crichton goes off on a class lecture about gorilla behavior or the advanced (for 1980) state of communications, he still manages to hold the reader's attention.Overall, this is a wonderful jungle thriller.  If you enjoy authors such as Clive Cussler, you're sure to enjoy Crichton.  His writing is intelligent, fun, and easy to digest even though it's full of factual information that, in textbook form, would be wretchedly boring.Highly recommended.
