After reading the other reviews of this book (Thank god I read the novel before reading any of them) I have decided I might just be the only Stephen King fan who actually loved this book.... but then Cell got very mixed reviews too and I thought that was pretty darn neat too. This latest novel from King starts when Lisey Landon is clearing out her late husband's study some time after his death along with her slightly estranged sister, Amanda. Her husband was a very successful author and has left behind what she assumes is all manner of unpublished manuscripts and newspaper/ magazine cuttings of all his guest appeareances over the years. Gradually over the ... Read the complete review

After the disappointment of Blaze, I was initially a little reluctant to return to a Stephen King story so soon. However, when I was able to pick up a copy for just 99p, I thought I might as well give it a go. The basic story sees an author's widow - Lisey Landon - trying to come to terms with her husband's death, whilst facing perils of her own, both natural and supernatural. Initially, my worst fears were confirmed. This almost 700-page tome seemed to return to the worst years of King's books - you know the ones I mean. The Tommyknockers era, when even the author admits he was so out of it on drink and prescription drugs that he didn't know what he was ... Read the complete review

Lisey's Story - Obsession or Escapism? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I received this book as part of my recent birthday present from my daughter and son-in-law, who know my long-term love affair with King's books. I finished it three days ago and naturally was going to review it. Then I read the other reviews and I must admit that it knocked my confidence to even attempt to write a review. I'm in one of my depressive moods and that shakes my faith in my own writing. However, I thought about it and decided that someone has to stand up and fight in King's corner, even though it might be seen as a losing battle. King has taken some knocks lately, even I ...

“I have seen the future of horror and its name is Clive Barker” or it was something like that that the disingenuous Stephen King once complimented his fellow horror/fantasy writer. As I’ve traversed the years with my reading in the horror genre, one of the constants spanning those decades has been the phenomenon that is Stephen King. So when I read a recent article that his son - pen name: Joe (Joseph) Hill - was about to break into the big league with his first major novel, I got a sense of dynasty about to move into a new era. In many ways, recent events have tied in with my own feelings that SK had long since gone past his sell by date and, indeed, the only reason I .. Read the complete review

In nearly 18 months in my current job, I have taken lunch away from my desk only once, preferring instead to spend my free time surfing the web. The one exception was earlier this year when Stephen King’s “Cell” was newly published and I was so eager to read it that I preferred the book to the internet. When “Lisey’s Story” was published, I expected to do the same again. Instead the opposite was true; this time, the internet held a greater attraction than the next page of a new Stephen King novel, which doesn’t happen very often. Not to me, at any rate. Lisey Landon is the widow of Scott Landon; a successful and award winning novelist. Finally, a couple ... Read the complete review
