Rambo: First Blood Part II Reviews: Not Free SF Reader  2007-09-03 - Somehow, Rambo is still alive. Resurrection pills? Anyway, he is in the slammer, and gets the 'go and do something really dangerous for us' choice, and decides to do it. He has some friends in Vietnman he would like to rescue, after all.
Again he gets shafted, but he is Rambo, and his name didn't become a catchphrase for nothing.
even though rambo died in the first book.....  2006-03-19 - even though rambo died in the first book, he lived in the movie, leaving it open for sequals. david morrell wrote a follow up book in an attempt to make the series his again, and make it the way he wanted it. although if it went the way he wanted it, rambo would be dead and there would be no crappy sequals. but thats what happens when you sell a masterpeice like 'first blood' to hollywood....
this isn't really a review  2006-02-13 - I havent read the book yet but i have a question. WARNING SPOILER TO FIRST BOOK
didn't rambo get killed in the first book? if so how is there a sequel?
An underated clssic!  2003-08-30 - I'm surprised that no on has reviewed this book. It's very good. The plot is good, the action is nice and logical, the book is funny and the character's are very developed. Rambo is much more human than in the movie, although he isn't quite as arrogant as he is in "First Blood". If you find a copy of this, you should buy it. It makes the movie even better, since we see what the caracter's are thinking. However, David made a few mistakes on the weapons. SPOILERS. . . . . Rambo didn't use an M60, he used an M60E3. The M134 chaingun wasn't called "Puff, the magic dragon". The AC-47 gunship, which didn't even have a M134, was called Puff the Magic Dragon.
One of the greatest novels of the century!  2002-06-12 - Rambo 2 is the startling account of one of the true icons of our culture and his struggle against corruption in the military, the ghosts of his painful past and his longing for true love. The writing here is some of the finest prose written in this century. The words flow effortlessly and carry the reader through every breathtaking moment. Morrell is a genius and this novel should be taught in every college literature program. Morell's writing can be complex at times but several readings will be rewarded with enlightenment and life-changing affirmations. The film is also a masterpiece and Stallone's acting is stellar (why he wasn't nominated for best actor is beyond me) but read the book first! Do not deprive yourself. Read Rambo 2!
