and probably a few more that I can think of.
By far though, I feel most books are better than the films. The most recent one that comes to mind is The Bourne Identity. Really only the basic premise of an operative trying to regain lost memory tracks the book. Every other aspect of the film is different from(and yes I will say inferior to) the book. Shame too, because I really enjoyed the novel when I read it about 8 or 9 years ago. Ludlum is probably the best in the spy-thriller story biz.
