There are a huge number of film adaptations of world bestsellers and classic literature in the world, according to which top ratings have been repeatedly compiled. However, there are also quite a few books written on the basis of cult films that are on the shelves of many moviegoers and do not lag behind their screened predecessors in terms of their fascination.
Fiction
One of the most popular books is Star Wars, which was captured on paper after the film was released. The fantastic saga, directed by George Lucas, has won such great fame that not only books have been written on it, but also scripts for TV series, cartoons, video games and comics. Volumes of Star Wars are on the shelf of almost every science fiction fan - the books are practically modern classic literature.
In addition, there are a large number of books that supplement or continue the history of Star Wars.
No less popular were the books on the cult "Terminator", which were published by publishers in whole series. Fans of the cyborg from the future to this day are reading the novels of Michael Stirling, Aaron Allston and Timothy Zahn, which were published from 2001 to 2010. After its triumphant march across the planet, "The Terminator" spawned many short stories, as well as literary backstories, offshoots and explanations of the original film adaptation.
Adventure and romance
Many short stories, novellas and books were written based on the film "Conan the Barbarian", in which the main role was played by the young Arnold Schwarzenegger. Immediately after the release of the film, it was novelized by Lyon Sprague de Camp. In 2011, Conan was resurrected again by Jason Momoa - and in the same year, writer Michael Austin Stackpole published his book on the new film.
Each of the books about Conan the Barbarian is famous for its absolute self-sufficiency and an interesting embodiment of film adaptations on paper.
Books on "Pirates of the Caribbean" allowed fans of the franchise to supplement and continue its plot, adapting it in literature for the youngest children. The main hero of the books on this film, of course, is the unsinkable captain Jack Sparrow, who was embodied in the film adaptation by the brilliant Johnny Depp. Today there are 12 books about the adventures of Jack Sparrow and 5 books about the legends of the Pirate Brotherhood, designed for a young audience.
A popular book based on the film of the same name is Four Weddings and One Funeral, written by the author's tandem of Richard Curtis and Cherry Gilchrist. It is considered one of the best books ever novelized based on a film. Especially "Four Weddings and One Funeral" is adored by fans of Hugh Grant, on the shelves of which this book takes pride of place.
