Just ordered Fairy Tale this morning.Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir and Fairy Tale by Stephen King in audio. Both excellent. The Muir one reminds me of Mervyn Peake and the King one is him back to his best.
I read The Institute (King) over the summer. I’ve read his older stuff. The Stand, It, Pet Cemetery, and Christine.Just ordered Fairy Tale this morning.
I loved The Institute too. I keep meaning to re read Salem's Lot and The Dead Zone. The latter is probably my fave of his.I read The Institute (King) over the summer. I’ve read his older stuff. The Stand, It, Pet Cemetery, and Christine.
Im not used to his writing containing cell phones, and text messages. It was a neat change.
The audio is great, narrator is excellent.Just ordered Fairy Tale this morning.
I'm re reading a couple of old Richard Laymon horrors for nostalgia sake then I'm diving into it. Can't wait either.I can't wait to dig into Fairy Tale.
Never too old for books!Too old now to start reading any more novels lol.....will just stick to stories on lit.......
Lit short stories are easier finished lolNever too old for books!
That’s next in my queue!I'm back to reading an erotic novel called Neon Gods by Katee Robert. It's a Hades and Persephone romance that takes place in a futuristic city where there are political positions based on the Greek pantheon.
I'm on page 180, I think? So, halfway.That’s next in my queue!
How far along are you?
https://www.theguardian.com/books/2...r-terry-pratchett-and-the-writing-of-his-lifeSimilar qualms on Terry’s part affected the price paid up front for Good Omens, his 1990 collaboration with Neil Gaiman. During 1985, Neil had shown Terry a file containing 5,282 words exploring a scenario in which Richmal Crompton’s William Brown had somehow become the Antichrist. Terry loved it, and the concept stayed in his mind. A couple of years later, he rang Neil to ask him if he had done any more work on it. Neil, who had been spending that time thinking about his series The Sandman, for DC Comics, said he hadn’t really given it another thought. Terry said: “Well, I know what happens next, so either you can sell me the idea or we can write it together.” Neil knew straight away which of those options he preferred. As he said: “It was like Michelangelo ringing up and saying, ‘Do you fancy doing a ceiling?’”
Omg I love this book. I need to pace myself but I want to devour it. I just finished chapter 10 and don't want to give any or get any spoilers!I can't wait to dig into Fairy Tale. I downloaded it on Kindle and Audible.
I finished the audio driving back from Belfast this afternoon. It's his best in years I think.Omg I love this book. I need to pace myself but I want to devour it. I just finished chapter 10 and don't want to give any or get any spoilers!
When King is on it, he's fucking on it though.
