Did King ever write any trilogies before this (besides the Dark Tower melarky)?

Like I said, reading books fresh off the printer is new to me. Oh well, I'll catch that elusive Mr. Mercedes book sooner or later. They're probably scalping them outside Barnes and Noble. Thanks for the info, mod :) Boy you must have the greatest job in the world.

Say WHAT? 2015, that can't be right? Does it usually take that long for the paperback version? (I rarely follow new releases, being satisfied to read a book a decade after everyone else). Oh, well, guess a used hardback will show up for a buck or two on amazon sooner or later. What trilogy is...

Sorry to be the token cheapskate, but anyone know the exact date of the paperback release? The hardcover is too rich for my blood as of yet, so I need to start counting day until I can read this... (sure hope it's better than Joyland. (Is it?))

That's the thing though... I didn't like Joyland. In fact, Joyland made me loose some faith in King. It seemed to have no heart or passion. Roadwork, Rage and Dead Zone are my favourites, especially Roadwork which seems like a master work with no gimmicks or frills. But is Blaze like Joyland...

Can't make my mind up. Is this book worth the purchase? Reviews are so varying. Is it as good as Roadwork or Rage? Is it near those in genre?

I figured as much. Just sounded like a great idea for a novel, would have loved to have read it, finished or not.

I wonder where that info comes from. The only references given in said article are Douglas E. Winter's Stephen King: The Art of Darkness. and Tickle, On My Tonkey (which makes no sense and a google search gives static). The text is not mentioned in Skeleton Crew's afterword ("Notes")

According to Wikipedia, the story "Morning Deliveries (Milkman No. 1)" from Skeleton Crew was: (...) adapted from an unfinished novel called "The Milkman." Any word on this unfinished book? Why was it abadoned, and is the unfinished MS obtainable?

Does anyone know why the Gypsies in Thinner spoke swedish? As a scandinavian it's hard not to miss it. Gypsises dont speak swedish... Did King just randomly choose words from a random dictionary? And how did the publishers allow it?
