Synopsis
With his battered leather jacket, his trademark Fedora and his bullwhip, Indiana Jones has gone in search of adventure, confronted danger and unearthed an untold wealth of ancient treasures. In "Raiders of the Lost Ark", the fearless archaeologist journeys from Nepal to Cairo to the Mediterranean, dodging poisons, traps and snakes, battling rivals old and new - in pursuit of an ancient artifact that holds the key to dazzling, invincible power. Indiana Jones and the "Temple of Doom" finds our intrepid hero in a remote village in India, where a mysterious shaman tells him that his arrival has been foreseen - and that he must retrieve a stolen mystical stone. And finally, Indy faces the most challenging and personal endeavor of his life: to rescue his estranged father, the eminent professor Dr Henry Jones, from a Nazi's lair, and recover the legendary Holy Grail. Yet Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade doesn't mean the adventure is over.

Customer Reviews

Best adventures ever written!
All three stories contained in this book, adapted from the film screenplays, are brilliant fun to read. They contain scences not in the original movies and give names to characters that are not named in the films. My personal favourtite of the three is Raiders which, like the movie it is based on, is just pure entertainment throughout with a compelling storyline. I have read the plot for Kingdom of the Crystal Skull from the recently released Sticker Album and the story for this is just as good as the original trilogy.
