About this ebook
For the first time in a beautiful new edition, this omnibus will collect together the original official novelizations of both Ghostbusters 1 and 2.
Relive the classic Ghostbusters stories with the original movie novelizations reprinted for the first time since 1980s.
When Dr. Peter Venkman and his Columbia University colleagues are kicked out of their prestigious academic posts, they start a private practice as professional ghost-catchers. Although things do not start auspiciously for the three parascientists, their television advertisements finally pay off when beautiful Dana Barrett contracts them. It seems her apartment has become the entryway for ghastly ghosts and goofy ghouls hellbent on terrorising New York City. Soon they're not just going to her rescue, but trying to rid the whole city of the slimy creatures.
After waging a war on slime that cost New York City millions, the Ghostbusters find themselves out of business until an ancient tyrant, preparing a return to the Earthly domain through his portrait at the Manhattan Museum of Modern Art, sets his sights on Dana Barrett's baby as the new home for his wicked soul!

Without doubt the worst movie tie-in I've ever encountered & possibly the worst ever written, at least in the '80s; I read it almost 40 years ago & remember the bile it inspired like it was yesterday. It's not a true novelization, but rather an unappetizing mishmash of basic details from the classic comedy-thriller scattered among tangents & fabrications that the author keeps pulling out of his tuchus. Note to R. Mueller: leave the improv to the film's cast & writers - you know, the ones who actually know how to do it. Everyone else: stick with Larry Milne's genuine novelization & try to track down Making Ghostbusters by Don Shay, they're both worth it. This one ain't.

The original novelizations of the first 2 Ghostbusters, which I assume came out when the movie was originally released. It was a trip down memory lane. I enjoyed it.
