    Steve announces trilogy on Twitter account

    Jokes on you, I know you were being facetious but I would read the heck out of that...

    Only if you've finished it *SPOILERS*

    I felt like the vernacular used by the characters was pretty on point in regards to who was speaking. It was easier being a fan, as I know that this is SK's normal writing style. Similar to Jeffery Chaucer(sp) during Canterbury Tales, he changes the entire tone of the book depending on who is...

    Steve announces trilogy on Twitter account

    Honestly, I posted on another thread about how I didn't find this book an "epic" but a very solid read. Maybe two more installments will push it over the edge into something fantastic. The entire time I was reading it, I thought, finally, a good character (Hodges) who is just an all around...

    Only if you've finished it *SPOILERS*

    Solid book, not an epic, but a good middle of the pack fill. We can't honestly expect King to crank out "The Stand" every year can we? 3.5/5, good addition to my bookshelf.

    What do you wish SK would write about?

    For books he never intends to write sequels for...a compilation book of all our favorite characters, what they've been up to all this time. I'm not done with Stuttering Bill, Dale Barbara, and Jake Epping.

    Doctor Sleep wins Bram Stoker Award

    Would it be considered taboo around here if I say I enjoyed NOS4A2, just as much, if not more, than Dr. Sleep...I mean come on, its his son!

    It remake

    I feel like a trilogy would suit this book best, but I wouldn't want them to leave ANYTHING out...and that might be a tad more than rated R!

    Easy Big Fella....

    They don't, I can assure you...not the tradional thumb safety, but they do have an internal safety built into the trigger that stops accidental discharges but it cant be activated or deactivated...but then again, who am I, a mere mortal, to disagree with the King! Lol! Offtopic, sorry!

    Easy Big Fella....

    1. Glocks dont have external safeties! ;) 2. Welcome, while I am a fan, I havent started the journey that is the DT series...I'm tackling the third of his 1k+ epics right now in "The Stand"..its really killed my productivity at work! Good to have you aboard!

    Would You Guys Give Stephen King To Your Child To Read?

    I was never told what I can and cant read...and because I think my parents did a great job (haha). I'll be the same way with my kids.

    So..is Half priced books marketplace legit?

    It honestly seems, WAY to good to be true! Any real experience with the online version of Half priced books?

    Why Is Stephen King so good? Well, I'll tell you...

    What gets me is the depth in the characters, I feel like I KNOW stuttering Bill Denbrough, like I've met Dale Barbara the short order cook with a shadowy past...I feel like its a real person that makes mostly logical choices. Mr. King doesn't use illogically based horror movie characters that...

    He's single handedly added the word "rube" to my vocabulary!

    Long time reader, short time King fan.

    I own Danse Macbre, The Stand(full uncut), and Skeleton Crew..haven't gotten around to reading them. I acquired around 25 books at once and now I still collect, but read one at a time so they all get the attention they deserve! Anyone have any feedback on his son? I own NOS4A2 but haven't got to...

    Theres a small family run cash-only used bookstore in the next town over. Wall to wall, stacks upon stacks with not much organization..and I wouldn't have it any other way!
