Hey, so I normally buy my books from this quaint old bookshop in the grassmarket it's always got like a new Stephen King - I've built up my collection from there and now have a sizable collection - but the Tommy knockers - Gard Ole Gard - brilliant -
But horror has changed - we have the master - one Mr Stephen King, who is without dispute the most prolific and well, the greatest at horror.
However - the market place is empty. Clive barker writes a little, but he's been gone since around the 90's lately... Richard Laymon is dead - we're kinda stuck for other new writers - can Mr King shed any light on who to watch out for -
Well I decided to check out Amazon. I don't own a kindle, I like the feel of a book but I do have a laptop and kindle readers are free... So I typed in a few key words... horror, fantasy, sex, drugs - and up came a host of titles - You can actually get some for nothing - big mistake - there is a reason why they're free - The one that struck me was the one that had the Title of the Jesus and Mary chain - Psycho Candy.
It's a long book and wow it is well written. I think if this chick (or guy - i forget the name) gets noticed then we're going to have a whole new world of horror for us.
I'm not saying he'll knock the king of his place but he's worth a real shot - Now love the Dark Half, Firestarter, the aforementioned Tommy Knockers, and so many more of his books - the shining, desperation, and my all time favourite the running man, which is one of the best books ever - if you have a laptop or an e-reader then follow this link - I advise you to get a copy and even you Mr King could maybe give this guy a hand on the long and stormy road to recognition...
Amazon.com: ebooks, horror, Psycho Candy
If you love horror as much as me and a well told story with twists - an actual gem in the rough, then I urge you to get yourself a copy...
Take care and peace out - I'm just about to start 11.22.63 - I hope it's in his true creative genius.
Peace out - you especially Beverly Marsh
