The apes are coming, just like you always knew they would. They’re taking over Facebook (check out an exclusive Livestream chat with the the WETA team, the special effects geniuses behind the scenes of the new film Rise of the Planet of the Apes on the Official Avatar movie Facebook page at 2:30 PDT today) and are now putting their stinking ape paws all over you favorite eReader device!
Today, the foolish humans at Random House unleashed an eBook edition of Pierre Boulle’s classic of speculative fiction, Planet of the Apes, into the wilds of your favorite eBook retailer. Unchecked, this could mean full-on gorilla warfare…no monkeying around! Whether you own a Kindle, Nook or other eReader device, you need to get out there and capture a copy today, before those damned, dirty apes take over.
If you’ve only seen the movie (and we’re talking the Charlton Heston classic here, none of that Marky Mark funny stuff…) then you don’t know APE. Boulle’s novel features a fully civilized ape culture, with gorillas driving cars, flying planes and even – gasp – achieving spaceflight (with human test animals, of course). This is almost a completely different story from what you know.
Get out there and get those apes before they BLOW IT ALL UP!
