Book Reviews of Vision Quest
Book Review: Great book, great movie...
Summary: 5 Stars
Vision Quest" is one of the movies that all wrestlers covet, however I never even knew the book existed until recently.
The book isn't exactly like the movie, so if your like me and just finding the book after you've loved the movie for years, all I can tell you is, in the book, Louden never wrestles Shute and Shute's first name isn't Brian, its Gary??
Terry Davis is a great writer and this book is written very well. For a novel written about being a teenager and a high school wrestler, you'd be surprised to find out that it was written in 1979.
Louden Swain is an unforgettable character, both as a teenager and as a wrestler.
Not all fans of "Vision Quest' the movie will enjoy this read, but some who see the bigger picture of the story will.
Great writing, excellent book!
