It is fascinating, at least to me it is, lol, and even though not all of his written works are directly connected to The Dark Tower, they are all connected to each other. For example: In The Tommyknockers, a young man and woman are sent to Derry, Maine (setting for IT) for supplies and you get a cameo of Pennywise from IT, its small but it's there. There are all kinds of connections between most of his written works. I remember reading somewhere that many of his stories supposedly take place on a different planes of existence, if that's the case, then really all of his stories are connected to The Dark Tower.

Just finished Horns by Joe Hill.
![]() I think it's possible that Hill is my current favorite author. Really loved this and can't wait for his new novel coming out in April. Highly recommended. |

I just recently picked this up, glad to hear that you liked it. I read Heart-Shaped Box and though I did enjoy it, I wasn't as impressed with it as I was hoping. I may have built him up a bit too much after I found out that he was King's son, I wanted him to be even better than his father. I'm not saying it wasn't good, it was, I just had him built up more than I should have.

I know you're quite the reader - Would be interested to hear what you think (as well as other folks on the forum) - I was curious as to how it was received by horror fans. I'm always looking for the next book to read - Any recommendations for good, solid, modern horror? Character-driven is a must; I really need to connect to the characters (I know that probably sounds obvious but recently I've been more interested in character pieces instead of blood and guts when it comes to horror reading). My fiance's brother recommended Mystery by Peter Straub, which I'm currently waiting to receive from the library. |

I was reading that first Walking dead book. I enjoyed the story and characters, but - particularly the last third of the novel - was extremely rough around the edges - shoddy, even. I expect a deadline was to blame.
