Batman Begins

The novel expands on the movie's plot and characters, but I wonder what motivated the decision to turn it into a book. Did the author want to explore inner thoughts more deeply or reach a different audience?

The book seems to give more insight into Batman's motivations and struggles. I'm curious if others felt a deeper connection or understanding of him after reading.

The film was fast-paced and action-packed, but the book seems to take a more contemplative approach. Did this change in pacing impact the way the story felt for other readers?
