I've only just breached the surface here, but from what I've read so far, I can tell this book is going on my permanent writing reference shelf. McKee knows his stuff and how to communicate it. I originally purchased this title as a supplementary resource suggested by Neil Gaiman's masterclass in storytelling, figuring if someone of his stature and experience found it useful, I might too. And I will be forever grateful that I did.

Excellent book, a real eye opener. The tools the author has provided in this work is invaluable to writers in all areas, whether it be screenwriting, novel, or even periodical submissions. The elements are presented in the easiest to-follow written style, and clear cut language anyone and everyone will benefit from.
Robert McKee is a master of the craft, and Story gives you all of the insight of his legendary three-day screenwriting seminar. A must for any kind of writer, it succinctly deconstructs the timeless and universal elements of storytelling in a way that will help writers understand how to strip the wasterful expository writing that too often bogs down a story and use only scenes that advance a story, give it meaning and hold the audience's attention.
