After reading the film version of the book (Confusing, I know), I thought this would be a great story. It is, in some ways, but in a lot of ways it is also definitely rubbish. The story is actually pretty great and focuses on the psychic problems that Batman has, but they didn't really work that out in the movie. Also, the dialogues consist mainly of one-liners, which is really fun to read, but spoken they sound forced and fake.
__________________________
Edward Nygma, a child prodigy, has always looked up to Bruce Wayne and tries to show him his new brain-wave technology. After he gets rejected, he goes mental and uses his brain-wave thingy to look into the brains of others.
Dr. Chase Meridian, a psychiatrist if I'm right, is very interested in Batman and his scarred psyche. She falls in love with him and at the same time falls in love with Bruce Wayne, not knowing that they are the same person.
Two-Face doesn't have a big role, he is just being Two-Face.
Robin saves the circus of a bomb, placed by Two-Face, but watches his parents and brother being killed by Two-Face's henchmen. After being convinced by Batman (he finds out that Batman=Bruce Wayne) that killing Two-Face isn't the right thing to do, he becomes Batman's protegé.
__________________________
If you only look at the story, I think this is the best Batman film of the Burton trio. Real comic fans shouldn't see it, though, because there are a few things that aren't the same in the movie as in the comics.

Robin: Holey rusted metal, Batman!
Batman: Huh?
Robin: The ground, it's all metal. It's full of holes. You know, holey.
Batman: Oh.
