Development
Conceived midway through the design process of Peter Jackson's King Kong.,[1] Weta the idea for the book was to showcase some of the thought and world design of Weta Workshop's work on the film in a different way from the usual "Making of..." and "Art of..." tie-in books.[2]
Content
Introduction
The introduction starts with the reveal that after King Kong's demise and the unveiling of Skull Island, universities and private organizations around the world made more expeditions to the island, but only a handful made it to Skull Island with half being unprepared for what awaited them. Eventually, a properly prepared expedition team lead by Carl Denham named Project Legacy is organized. The expedition lasts for three months in 1935, but the team finds that Skull Island was too strange and dangerous to study in a short space of time, leading the expedition to be expanded to long-term study and even establishing a base of operations on the island itself.
