LEGENDARY!! Finally Dragonball has come to life

I must say, this Novel is absolutely Fascinating. I recommend Everyone to buy It!! It's for all audiences to enjoy, not just fans. Trust me it won't spoil nothing, but raise your excitement even HIGHER for the movie if your a fan or not. If you don't read this book you will be missing out on a great Adventure and story of a Legendary Warrior named Goku. Goku never felt so real!! The Junior Novel will give you a Clear understanding of what everything is about and make your anticipation to see the movie much higher then ever before. It sums up the Emperor Pilaf Saga, King Piccolo saga all into one book for everybody to enjoy, not just the fans of the anime and manga. It gave me such a good feeling, without trying to spoil the movie for us fans. The End leaves you wanting to know what happens next. They left out a few things so the movie can show you what happens. I was wondering how they was going to make everything in the Dragonball movie seem believable and come to life for all audiences to enjoy. James Wong, Stacia Deutsch Succeeded in doing that. The anime and manga had alot of stuff that made it seem not believable to alot of people, but James Wong made it very believable even though the story is fictional. Goku Being in highschool made it extra believable, I had my doubts about it at first but this defiantly changed my mind about it. I loved the highschool scenes now. I can actually see myself being Son Goku for the first time. Discovering new powers and becoming a hero. James Wong had me thinking Shenron and Piccolo was actually real for a second. I was trapped in the story from begining to end. I can actually see some of those things in the book happen in real life now, before I couldn't! I like the way they described the Ki in the story. The way he described how to use the ki made me feel like I can learn it from Master Roshi and Grandpa Gohan too. While I was reading the Novel I began to mimic Goku's every move. I started to raise my chest just like son Goku. I did everything Roshi and Grandpa Gohan told Goku to do, to complete the ki attack. Of course it didn't work for me, but it felt GOOD, IT FELT REALLY GOOD trying it!!!!! This book gives you that feeling of excitement and joy. I can't wait to read it again tomorrow!! BRAVO!!
