Title: Contrived
Review: In my view, the most interesting parts of the movie involve the musical interaction between Wordman and Eddie, and the growing popularity of the Band. But the book is a letdown.The author really never develops the musical collaboration between the Band's members. The reader is left to assume that the Band became popular, but how and why are never explained. I found the dialog to be contrived and pointless. The book's characters are never developed. The violence is gratuitous and pointless. If you like the movie, forget the book. This 30-year-old read is certainly not worth a full $12.99 Kindle price.
