Summary: See the movie, don't wait for the bok
Review: Normally, when I read a book before I see the movie, it increases my desire to see said movie. Unfortunately, in the case of T3, the opposite has been true. Reading the novelization has made me uncertain whether or not I want to see the film at all, theatrically at least. There are sloppy errors of character development that should never have been overlooked--for example, refrences to the events of T2 having taken place in 1991, simply because that's when the movie was released. Logically, T2 couldn't have taken place in 199a, because the original film took place in '84 as revealed by Sarah Conor in the opening narration, and if T2 had taken place in '91, John would only be seven. Yes, it's a geeky fanboy detail, but if you're going to do a story based on someone else's universe, details are the things that matter.I also think I would've enjoyed this more had I not been reading S. M. Sterling's take on the T3 that could've been, "Infiltrator," which, in my opinion, is a much better and more interesting story. T3: Rise of the Machines is, in my opinion, fast-food Terminator. "Infiltrator" and its follow-ups, are the real meal. While it's true that those books are each over 400 pages long and couldn't possibly have turned into two-hour action fests, I still feel the spirit of the Terminator films was captured more interestingly. I say all this only to explain that it's tough not to judge a molehill by the mountain it could have been. Having said that, though, T3 has good action, brisk pace, some cool twists of its own, and will probably do quite well at the box office. In closing ... the original Schwarzeneger Terminator was a Cyberdine Systems Model 101, NOT A T-800!! No fate but what we make. Cheers.

Summary: Terminator 3 rocks
Review: This book is the most thrilling and exciting book ever. It has awesome details to show the reader what is happening in the scene combined with an all ready spectacular plot this book is awesome and deserves all the complements it gets.The book tells an awesome story and has amazing events that will keep the reader reading intensly. The movie was also great but I think that reading the book before the movie sort of ruined the ending but all in all it was okay. I would reccomend this book to anyone who likes to read and is a fan of the terminator series.
An those who like the Governer of California.
