Book Overview: A stunning SF novel Republished by Gollancz to tie-in with the brand new film adaptation, starring Will Smith Will Smith is the world's most bankable star. This will be a huge film. 'I think the author who influenced me the most as a writer was Richard Matheson. Books like I Am Legend were an inspiration to me' Stephen King 'Pulls off that difficult trick of marrying two genres, in this case horror and SF. It is by turns, scary, thrilling, tragic, witty and - ultimately - uplifting' James Lovegrove 'The most clever and riveting vampire novel since Dracula' Dean R. Koontz

Media Reviews
I Am Legend is a better, tighter, sharper book than Dracula which makes it the best vampire novel ever written. It's a terrifying thriller, but also a canny moral lesson with an unforgettable finish. -- Kim Newman EMPIRE Parts are very scary and vivid, while there's also the tale of a man who lives alone and spends his days scavenging for food and desperately hoping to find another human, and his nights in fear. Don't just see the film, experience this story as it was first told. -- John West COVENTRY TELEGRAPH
