The Inspiration for the New Major Motion Picture RINGS

A mysterious videotape warns that the viewer will die in one week unless a certain, unspecified act is performed. Exactly one week after watching the tape, four teenagers die one after another of heart failure.

Asakawa, a hardworking journalist, is intrigued by his niece's inexplicable death. His investigation leads him from a metropolitan tokyo teeming with modern society's fears to a rural Japan--a mountain resort, a volcanic island, and a countryside clinic--haunted by the past. His attempt to solve the tape's mystery before it's too late--for everyone--assumes an increasingly deadly urgency. Ring is a chillingly told horror story, a masterfully suspenseful mystery, and post-modern trip.

The success of Koji Suzuki's novel the Ring has lead to manga, television and film adaptations in Japan, Korea, and the U.S.

From Publishers Weekly
The success of the 2002 American movie The Ring, a remake of Hideo Nakata's Ringu, has excited interest both in the original film and in the novel on which it's based. The plot will be familiar to the movie's many fans: a reporter, Asakawa, connects the death of his niece to the deaths of three other high school students. During his investigation, he discovers a videotape with a terrible warning: "Those who view these images are fated to die at this exact moment one week from now." With the aid of a friend, Asakawa traces the video to an alleged psychic and her daughter, Sadako. As in a classic ghost story, fate singles out one, often innocent character as a scapegoat. But the misogynistic society that persecutes Sadako and her mother must ultimately bear witness to its sin-or perish. Despite a somewhat pedestrian and unintentionally comic prose style that seems derived from manga comics ("Ryuji was right. Men could not bear children"), fans of the movie won't be disappointed. Anyone curious in how the Japanese see themselves will find this book a fascinating, and ultimately highly disturbing, experience.

From Booklist
The recent horror/suspense film called The Ring was a remake of the Japanese film Ringu, which was in turn based on a 1991 novel that is now appearing in English for the first time. The novel, which tells the story of a journalist investigating the apparently simultaneous deaths of four teenagers, begins as a traditional mystery. But it glides smoothly into horror when the journalist discovers that all four victims watched a videotape that guaranteed their deaths in one week if they did not do a certain thing (details are missing from the tape). If the journalist can't figure out what happened, he, too, the tape prophesizes, is doomed. Told with a minimum of horror cliches, the novel creates a sense of slowly mounting dread, as though something unpleasant is inevitable, and we are powerless to stop it. With the release of The Ring (and its Japanese inspiration) on video (and talk of a sequel to the American film), this novel is sure to be much in demand among both mystery and horror fans.

Review
"Anyone curious in how the Japanese see themselves will find this book a fascinating, and ultimately highly disturbing, experience." - Publishers Weekly

"From its eerie opening to its chilling conclusion, this novel by the "Stephen King of Asia" will keep readers glued to its pages." - Library Journal

"But Suzuki is plowing a path that nobody else has traveled, as his 'Ring'-virus is born into an all-too vulnerable world. There are so many extremely clever riffs that never made it into either movie that readers aren't likely to notice how wide the road recently traveled is until they catch their breath and manage to look back." - Agony Columns

"Suzuki's ambitious trilogy does succeed, and it's hard not to be impressed with his aplomb in turning a straight supernatural horror mystery around into a piece of pure science fiction." - TIMES

"Suzuki is called the Stephen King of his country, but that's not really accurate; King isn't nearly as adept at creating complex characters, explaining scientific principles or writing the kind of dialogue that might actually be spoken by humans." - Las Vegas Mercury

Must Read, Ring
By Raymond Mickey
I think people should read this... If not for the fact you're a fan of movies like "The Ring" or "Ringu"; but because it works so much of the plot together rather masterfully. The translation isn't perfect; but it conveys the general feel I was hoping to get from reading this book... It's way more imaginative than the movies, and after reading this think that the movies shouldn't of played around with the lore as much as they did. It might be worth it to watch Ringu Kanzenban, since it's more closely related to the happenings in the book. With how oddly the plot flows in the movies, the transitions make sense in this book. In the movies it goes from A to B to C to D; but in this book it's more like A to AB to ABC to ABCD: The natural flow is just better. You can understand how the beginning is related to the end, rather than missing pieces of internal monologue, that would be important to understand how it's progressing.

You won't regret this one!
By Inahka
Firstly, I have not watched the film of this book.
I'm not too keen on horror/creepy movies because of those dang 'pop out' scenes.. I jump every time, even if I know something is coming, LOL.
So, I can't compare this to the film, but it was a bloody brilliant book! It was creepy and mysterious.
I read it in 2 sittings (I stopped last night, he he, it was getting dark!!)
You will not be able to put it down because you want to know what happened.
To me this seemed more like a mystery (albeit, a creepy one) than true horror, but don't let that deter you.

I was left with one question, which I think I can state without ruining it, what about the phone?! Wasn't that an important detail?! I never figured it out... Bah, well, I am a world class idiot when it comes to figuring things out (For instance, I never know 'whodunit?')

I will definitely be buying the next two books and anxiously awaiting for them to arrive.

I expected a lot more
By Naomi
This book had moments of being quite good and some really wonderful prose in places, but the overall story left me feeling unsatisfied and very detached. I really didn't care about whether the main character died or lived, because not only was his back-story completely lacking, but he was such an unpleasant, selfish person that I found myself completely indifferent to his fate. Upping the stakes by having his wife and child involved seemed haphazard and tacked on, as though the author realised his main character was unsympathetic and he needed a reason to make the reader care.

And then there was the utter confusion of genre. It's a sort of conglomeration of horror, thriller, literary fiction and drama, and can never seem to decide which one it wants to be. The literary aspects were, for me, the weakest and the most badly handled. The attempts at exploring morals were artificial and never fully fleshed out. Ryuji's character suddenly being absolved at the end was just ridiculous to me, and the "did he/didn't he" question was brought in too late for me to give a damn.

Then there's the story itself, which borders on the ridiculous. This mix of medical horror meets ghost story became to feel like the author was trying too hard to make it shocking. Finally, it wasn't scary at any point and that really disappointed me. The build-up of tension was poor, and the constant head-hopping and interior monologue killed any chance of any being developed. Overall, I didn't hate the book and I enjoyed it in parts, but I certainly couldn't say it was a good, or effective book on any level.
